    This song was inspired by a chapter from Hubert Selby, Jr.'s 1964 controversial novel about the brutality of urban life, Last Exit to Brooklyn. Lyrical allusions include "Tralala," (the title character of a prostitute character in the book) and "broom-shaped pleasure," (the chapter ends with a particularly gruesome gang rape of Tralala involving a broom).
    The song title does not feature in the lyrics. Speaking with Secret Sound Shop, frontman Joe Newman explained: "Basically the phrase is 'in your snatch fits pleasure, broom shaped pleasure,'" he said, "so fits and pleasure and Fitz like a second name, like Fitzpatrick so we thought Fitzpleasure, so more subtle."
    Newman explained to Secret Sound Shop why he chose such a shocking subject matter for the song: "I always believe that you write about what moves you," he said, "and although that gang-rape scene is horrible... it really moved me, it's really well written, you don't really know which way is up after that chapter. I thought it was a really powerful thing to write about."
    Another link between Last Exit to Brooklyn and rock music is that The Smiths titled their 1986 album, The Queen Is Dead, after a different chapter in the novel.
    Mentioned both in this song ("Dead in the middle of the C-O-double M-O-N" ) and "Bloodflood," The Common is a park in Southampton, the South England city where Newman grew up.
    The lyric, "Dead in the middle of the C-O-double M-O-N" was inspired by a line from Puerto-Rican/American rapper Big Punisher's 1998 track "Twinz," which goes: "Dead in the middle of Little Italy. Little did we know that we riddle some middlemen who didn't do diddle." Newman explained to NME: "There's a gang in Southampton called The Mandela Boys. We were scared s---less of them when we were kids. The (next) line, 'Little did I know then that the Mandela Boys soon become Mandela Men' is me wondering whether they're still in the gang or if they've just all got jobs and kids now."
    The song has been used in several TV series, including Weeds, Suits and Homeland.

The sound of the base actually make me feel sick and even sacred (like when I hear it I hear actual evil) Like my flight or fight senses instantly get heightened. It’s insane how affective this song is in actually scarring me. I’m actually impressed, these guys are amazing at conveying the emotion and grit of tralalas terrible fate.

    Tralala, in your snatch fits pleasure, broom-shaped pleasure
    Deep greedy and Googling every corner
    Dead in the middle of the C-O-double M-O-N
    Little did I know then that the Mandela Boys soon become Mandela Men
    Tall woman, pull the pylons down
    And wrap them around the necks of all the feckless men that queue to be the next
    Steepled fingers, ring leaders, queue jumpers, rock fist paper scissors, lingered fluffers
    In your hoof lies the heartland
    Where we tent for our treasure, pleasure, leisure, les yeux, it’s all in your eyes
    In your snatch fits pleasure, broom-shaped pleasure
    Deep greedy and Googling every corner

    This is copied from an interview with Alt-J:
    "...What is Fitzpleasure?
    Fitzpleasure? Erm
    It’s not rude is it?
    It is rude, well it’s not rude, it’s graphic and it’s violent. It’s based on a book by Hubert Selby Jr [Last Exit to Brooklyn]. Each chapter is about a different character and they all intertwine throughout the book. There’s a woman called Tralala so that’s why we sing [sings] Tra-la-la-la there’s a character called Tralala and it’s just about her. So basically the phrase is ‘in your snatch fits pleasure, broom shaped pleasure’ so fits and pleasure and Fitz like a second name, like Fitzpatrick so we thought Fitzpleasure, so more subtle. But it’s about the end of the chapter where she gets, er, gang-raped, so it’s really horrible.
    Who read the book?
    I did. I always believe that you write about what moves you and although that gang-rape scene is horrible… it really moved me, it’s really well written, you don’t really know which way is up after that chapter. I thought it was a really powerful thing to write about.

      You're right to be concerned tbh. This song is based on a character Tralala who is a prostitute. The book is called Last Exit to Brooklyn and her story is disturbing to say the least.
