Razors pain you;
Rivers are damp;
Acids stain you;
And drugs cause cramp.
Guns aren’t lawful;
Nooses give;
Gas smells awful;
You might as well live.
-- Dorothy Parker (1893-1967)
Somewhere in Germany
In a moment of misery
I think about liberty
And the end of the world
Somewhere in Germany
I think about Italy
Of friendship and ecstasy
And the end of the world
Ordo Rosarius Equilibrio – I think about Germany and The End of The World
It may sound a little LucyInTheSky, but I can easily picture myself singing the same things with a joint in my hand. :P

"Male" songs from Dover: DJ, Flashback, The Morning After, Big Mistake, Push It, King George, Judas, Astroman, The Weak Hour of the Rooster
"Female" songs from Dover: Loli Jackson, Cherry Lee, She Will, Jane Below, Sick Girl, Serenade, Lady Barbuda, My Secret People, One Black Day
"Male & female" songs from Dover: Devil Came To Me, Spectrum, Free Kitten, Sea Witch, Love Is A Bitch (could also be female), Winter Song (could also be male), You & Me (close to being female), Let Me Out (exactly the same), Do Ya (close to being male), The Flame (almost male but something weird in there), Mi Sombrero (almost female but...)
Conclusions:
- hardest rock equals less gender (La Monja Mellada and Me and my Mulón may have something female-ish, but not quite as much as Serenade or Cherry Lee)
- male tracks tend to be longer
- most female Dover album: Sister
- most male Dover album: I was dead for seven weeks in the city of angels
- most male & female Dover album: Devil Came To Me
- they drifted towards a more androgynous sound.
