What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
This song is for the rats
2
Who hurled themselves into the ocean
3
When they saw that the explosives in the cargo hold
4
Were just about to blow
5
This song is for the soil
6
That's toxic clear down to the bedrock
7
Where no thing of consequence can grow
8
Drop your seeds there, let them go
9
Let them go
10
Let them all go
11
Let 'em all go
12
This song is for the people
13
Who tell their families that they're sorry
14
For things they can't and won't feel sorry for
15
And once there was a desk
16
And now it's in a storage locker somewhere
17
And this song is for the stick pins and the cottons
18
I left in the top drawer
19
Let 'em all go
20
Let 'em all go
21
I wanna sing one for the cars
22
That are right now headed silent down the highway
23
And it's dark and there is nobody driving
24
And something has got to give
25
I saw you waiting by the roadside
26
You didn't know that I was watching
27
Now you know
28
Let it all go
29
Let 'em all go
30
Let it all go
