There's a line in it we used to say all the time: 'Shut up Maurice! Can't you see you're insulting the Freaks?!' ... It means a lot more than that now though, Embrace your Inner Freak is our motto. It basically means embrace that part of you that's unique and different, because that's what makes you, you." says the band in a reply to a fan question.
