The chorus in this line is brilliant, and ties in with the mention of voodoo economics. “I move forwards, you move backwards, and somewhere we will meet”. Sound familiar? “Trust me, give your money to the rich to propel them forwards into unprecedented amounts of wealth and power, you guys can fall behind into poverty and powerlessness, and..umm....uhh, yeah we’ll meet somewhere in the middle...ha ha!” As relevant today as ever. Anyone know what Thom says after "voodoo ecomonics", though? It sounds something like "I know" or "I don't" twice, but I can't make it out and it's never included in the lyrics when looking them up.
