A kind of meta-protest song that calls for strength, unity and marching in the streets without ever clearly identifying what is actually being protested against. There are oblique references to ‘righting wrongs’ to avoid having your ‘freedom wings’ clipped, and while ‘they’ are accused of chaining up humanity and blind-folding lucid dreamers, no specific victims or perpetrators are identified. It’s just the vibe, man, you know what I mean? Jesus. I mean really, what a bunch of vague-headed, ill-aimed, clichéd bollocks. This is why people hate hippies.
