While “Dysfunctional” seems, at first blush, to be another of lead singer Dave Smalley’s ignorant screeds against mythical “PC fascists”, in the vein of other Down by Law tunes such as “For Your Eyes Only” or “Rebel Conformist”, it is actually, upon closer inspection, an indictment of the Catholic c...
You talk about tolerance
You talk about forgiveness

And even if

You're building a hell
Your faith
Is all about conformity
Your one way smile
Is a mask of deformity
This is my, my dysfunctional family
Well this is my dysfunctional family
