The chorus of the song Child Psychology featured a highly controversial line, "Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it". This led to the song being banned on UK radio and MTV. However, the sardonic nature of the song also gained praise from critics, with one calling it 'refreshingly blunt'. The single was released in the US shortly after the Columbine massacre, this led to the line 'Kill Yourself' being played backwards on the US release.
