One thought on “13 Things the Fox Says

  1. I have to agree with some things that the fox says while I have to disagree with some things that the fox says. It is uncertain that the fox will always be there. Nobody knows whether some predator or unbalanced force might affect their numbers in nature. Also, foxes are not everywhere (thank goodness). The second one “That they are the boss” is a common belief in some animals. For example, lions claim this due to their physical superiority while humans claim this due to their intellectual superiority. The third one “that things will get better” is an inaccurate statement simply because what might seem better for one group might actually seem worse for another. Thus, a compromise is cumbersome to achieve. The fourth one “that they are indeed a fox” is indubitable, because all animals living around foxes know how foxes look and behave. The fifth one “that they value you” is a controversial statement. They “value you” because they either like you (which is not really true) or they consider you to be their prey (which is a more likely explanation). The seventh one “that he’s too in love to speak right now” just describes the idea that foxes like humans have feelings for each other. The twelfth one “that they can relate to you” does not make much sense. Foxes do not have to suffer in school in order to find a degree which can get them a job to be make money, get married, and form an immediate family. Foxes certainly have more freedom and free will since they are not restricted to live in certain places or to obey laws.

    It is interesting how an art form such as the song by the Danish group can characterize an animal without providing extremely monotonous explanations that will make a person dislike the fox even more. Too bad this is not done with everything around us, especially when we need clarification and justification of what we are usually struggling to figure out.
