Repetition is for Gods.
Distorted vocals, funky sound effects, and straight forward drums start things off with deceptive simplicity. But layer upon layer is constructed.

Broken Social Scene - Anthems for a Seventeen Year Old Girl
The writing on the wall:
Used to be one of the rotten ones
and I liked you for that
Now you're all gone, got your make up on
and you're not coming back [can't you come back?]
Bleachin your teeth, similing flash,
talking trash under your breath [under my window]
Park that car, drop that phone,
sleep on the floor, dream about me
Used to be one of the rotten ones
and I liked you for that
