| Neil Young – Rockin' in the Free World Lyrics | 11 years ago |
| I can't believe how many people have missed the point. The chorus is stingingly sarcastic - the song is attacking the way the US high-fives itself about being the leader of the free world at the same time as it has profound sickness within its society. The versus point out some of the failures and sickness within this society, and some of the ugliest elements of humanity. Then, in the chorus, it is basically saying "but yeah, keep telling yourselves we're awesome and somehow better than everyone else because we declared ourselves so". | |
