These lyrics are pretty straight forward, and at the time I am submitting this, Rufus' narration of the song is still available on his MySpace.
I can certainly empathize with how he's feeling, but to me these lyrics are a bit naive. He seems to believe that by leaving the US, he'll be able to escape many of the ills our society is currently facing. I think that until some massive shift in consciousness occurs, people all over the planet will be facing these issues.

It's still a great song though!!
