they are about boys and girls, yes, but I feel like you'd have to be actively avoiding the point not to catch the heavier end of what they get at.

Ok, so it's twee, but not nonsense?
So Profound Twee maybe?
I <3 that genre.

Does it really matter whether it's twee or not?

Not really. I'll shut up now.

If lyrics about relationships between men and women are "twee," then there are like maybe 6 bands in the universe that aren't twee!

I would imagine droone was referring more to her delivery and possibly some aspects of the lyrical content.

But, you know, TWEE IS A WAY OF LIFE.

I mean, wtf is the tendency to criticize cuteness if it's not phony/affected?
