well, obviously the chorus
"don't let the bastards grind you down" is the most relevant part to the book and this quote i found to be something very meaningful in the way that both in the song and the book it is almost looked over as a let down to something that might be very important, and the fact that it is in a rock song almost demonstrates the low keyness of the quote and how it is something that just anyone would throw around. But to me it seems very powerful and meaningful because of that fact. The song is basically about how everything is fake and you shouldnt believe in what you hear and lean, and of course this ties into the book because everything is propaganda and is just being said to fool the people in Gilead to believe in a false truth. But dont let the bastards grind you down has an eerie feel to it and becomes very powerful in my opinion.
