I think it was the 3rd or 4th time I heard that song on the radio that I actually listened to all the lyrics and went "whoa, this isn't just a silly, catchy song." My experience watching Doctor Who has been rather similar, in the way that the wacky fun adventures pull you in, but then when you really pay attention to it there's this dark rummination on power and how it can corrupt.
A seriously fantastic character study of the ambivalence of the Doctor.
