Ironic Choice of Music in Kinect ad

You might recognize the riff.
Vid-1
(sorry the original was taken down)

Its the song used in this Kinect ad
Vid-2

lets look at the lyrics shall we?

The tune is called "Natural's not in it" by "Gang of Four"

The problem of leisure
What to do for pleasure
Ideal love a new purchase
A market of the senses
Dream of the perfect life
Economic circumstances
The body is good business
Sell out, maintain the interest
Remember Lot's wife
Renounce all sin and vice
Dream of the perfect life
This heaven gives me migraine
The problem of leisure
What to do for pleasure

-------------note-hmmm does this even need any real analysis?

Coercion of the senses
We are not so gullible
Our great expectations
A future for the good
Fornication makes you happy
No escape from society
Natural is not in it
Your relations are of power
We all have good intentions
But all with strings attached

Repackaged sex keeps your interest
Repackaged sex keeps your interest
Repackaged sex keeps your interest
Repackaged sex keeps your interest
Repackaged sex keeps your interest
Repackaged sex keeps your interest

-------------note-Can't argue with that!

The problem of leisure
What to do for pleasure
Ideal love a new purchase
A market of the senses
Dream of the perfect life
Economic circumstances
The body is good business
Sell out maintain the interest
Remember Lot's wife
Renounce all sin and vice
Dream of the perfect life
This heaven gives me migraine
This heaven gives me migraine
This heaven gives me migraine

The song sounds to be both about the evil man corporations leechin off their Punk ethos and about drug abuse, speed and alcohol probably at the top of the list

EITHER OF WHICH made for an extremely awkward realization when watching this ad...

"wait isn't that gang of four...

with the song about...

man what the..."

Well spotted, kinda puts a question mark over Kinect's family friendly veneer doesn't it?
