The meaning of this song is summed up in the following lyrics:
"Knowledge is a deadly friend When no one sets the rules The fate of all mankind I see Is in the hands of fools"
In other words, our technological prowess has far outstripped our wisdom in wielding it. We have invented the means of our own destruction.
I first heard this album in college in the mid 1970's, and I still play the CD to this day.
