Pinkerton/YMMV

• Angst Dissonance: Some listeners may find it hard to sympathise with the lyrics of "Tired of Sex", which essentially whine about having too much sex.
• Epic Riff: Every song on the album has one.
• Jerkass Woobie: The lyrics can produce this effect, as some of them which might invite more sympathy are contrasted with ones that come across as assholish (the third verse of "Getchoo", which undercuts its protest about being seen as a "freak" with an insenstively-worded dismissal of his behaviour as "just fooling around"), creepy (the sniffing-a-Japanese-fan's-letter-and-imagining-her-wank business of "Across the Sea", which arguably subverts the longing chorus), stalkerish ("So I went into your room, and read your diary!" in "El Scorcho") or outright What the Hell, Hero?-inducing ("Butterfly").
• Squick: "Across the Sea", in which Cuomo admits to sniffing a letter from a Japanese fan he was obsessed with and wondering how she masturbates.
• Unfortunate Implications: "Across the Sea" has the line "They don't make stationery like this where I come from/So fragile, so refined", which implies an Orientalist view of Japan. Additionally, some of the lyrics are quite problematic in their attitude towards women - the first couple of lines in "Butterfly" could be interpreted to mean that Rivers tends to treat women more as things to be "caught with a mason jar" than actual persons.
