Favor me with some Momacular insight: after reading through the lyrics, I detect a strain of the non-native English delaware so beautifully describe (http://www.delaware.gr.jp/TEXT/txt_world_languag_e.html) in one of their poem-blogs. Anything to that?

Oh, and by the way: maybe the finest lyrics of your career to date, in my ever-so humble o-pinion. Can't wait to get the album, and, of course, congratulations, you old scoundrel!

That Delaware thing is quite similar to the idea of RedeEnglish (http://imomus.livejournal.com/105277.html).
