@mrshiggs1 I always thought the lyric was 'I had a crap gin and tonic at Wounded Knee' and that Malkmus was being an even greater (albeit lovable) smart ass by making the association between British and American imperialism - hence the parallels between the 'Great Game' of the C19 and the more recent intervention in Afghanistan. But then again I may have heard it wrong. Only the great man himself knows :-)
@thomaswakley1823 LOL Loved your assessment even though it's not the lyric. If anyone could write that kind of song - it would be Malkmus; he's a smart, well educated, articulate fellow. Big fan here. Thank you for making me chuckle. May your weekend be filled with mucho Malkmus :-)
sag aloo is my favourite indian side order I am glad to have finally encountered a song which gives it its due recognition. :P
