K' adds: "This part is at the beginning of the song in the introduction. It sounds as though the lead singer sort of shouting the line. But the way the line is being said/sung, if you're not listening carefully, then it's going to sound like he is saying 'wanker, wanker' as opposed to 'Da da daaa, da da daaa'".
