This careless interpretation (if you can even call it that) completely misrepresents the meaning of the original work. It represents the idea of using a delicate touch to handle something with the idea of punching it like a child would instead. As another song by them put it:
“Don’t feed the people
But we feed the machines”
I doubt the band themselves have a whole lot of say (or even really care that much) over things like this at this point in their career. I’d say management/record label is likely where the blame should be on thus one.
Sorry if my title didn’t communicate that clearly but I do agree!
