Tonight the kids of Kaye Scholer are enjoying the musical stylings of Jack and Meg White at Madison Square Garden. In their summer associate honor, I am posting this montage for the song "Conquest" by the Stripes off their latest release "Icky Thump."
Why do I get the impression these lyrics were inspired a meme email chain from 1996?
Conquest-
He was out to make a conquest
Didn't care what harm was done
Just as long as he won
the prize
Conquest-
She was just another conquest
Didn't care whose heart was broke
Love to him was a joke
'til he looked into her eyes
And then in the strange way things happen
The roles were reversed from that day
The hunted became the huntress
The hunter became the prey
Conquest-
Now you know who made the conquest
She, with all her female guile
Led him helpless down the aisle
She had finally made a conquest
And then in the strange way things happen
The roles were reversed from that day
The hunted became the huntress
The hunter became the prey
Conquest!
I don't know how much I like the message of these lyrics. Oh well.
