If you ask me, I think that CocoRosie have a sort of so to say mythology of their own in their lyrics, and some facts of their biography just blend into their lyrical universe making inseparable whole. And what all of this is supposed to mean then? In the end we just get a cocktail of controversial and sometimes mutually exclusive facts. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a relaxing summer evening, complete with curtains hanging in a window and the sound of music drifting from a nearby house.
