The song "Rebel Rebel" by Mama Sol Tha N.U.T.S is a cover of the original song by David Bowie. The lyrics are a tribute to non-conformity, rebellion, and gender non-conformity. In the Chorus I, "You've got your mother in a whirl", implies that the person being addressed is causing confusion and worry to their mother. "She's not sure if you're a boy or a girl", further emphasizes the theme of gender non-conformity. The line "Hey babe, your hair's alright/Hey babe let's go out tonight" celebrates individuality and self-expression.
The Chorus II celebrates joy and individuality, "We like dancing and we look divine". The line "You love bands when they play it hard/You want more and you want it fast" reinforces the idea of non-conformity and individuality. Chorus III is a response to those who criticize the person being addressed, calling them "tacky" and "wrong". However, the lyrics assert that individuality is something to be valued and celebrated.
Chorus IV is a call to action, "Rebel rebel put on your dress/Rebel rebel your face is a mess" emphasizes that it's okay to express yourself in any way you choose, even if it goes against cultural norms. The line "Hot tramp I love you so" again emphasizes the idea of celebrating individuality and encourages rebellion against societal norms.
