What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
We'll call you when you're six years old
2
And send you to the factory
3
To train your brain for eighteen years
4
With promise of security
5
But then you're free
6
And forty years you waste to chase the dollar sign
7
So you may die in Florida
8
At the pleasant age of sixty-nine.
9
The water's getting hard to drink
10
We've mangled up the country side
11
The air will choke you when you breathe
12
We're all committing suicide
13
But it's alright
14
It's progress folk keep pushin' till your body rots
15
Will strip the earth of all it's green
16
And then divide it into parking lots.
17
But there's nothing you and I can do
18
You and I are only two
19
What's right and wrong is hard to say
20
Forget about it for today
21
We'll stick our heads into the sand
22
Just pretend that all is grand
23
Then hope that everything turns out OK.
24
You're free to speak your mind my friend
25
As long as you agree with me
26
Don't criticize the father land
27
Or those who shape your destiny
28
'Cause if you do
29
You'll lose your job your mind and all the friends you knew
30
We'll send out all our boys in blue
31
They'll find a way to silence you.
32
But there's nothing you and I can do
33
You and I are only two
34
What's right and wrong is hard to say
35
Forget about it for today
36
We'll stick our heads into the sand
37
Just pretend that all is grand
38
Then hope that everything turns out OK.
