So many people try to do things for themselves
So many heroes should be taken off the shelf
Go see a movie, so far from our reality
Cue up the line to see people hurt and bleed

WE DON'T FLY THE ONLY FLAG ON THE EARCH
AND AS OUR BROTHERS DIE THEY INHERIT THE DIRT
A WHILE BACK THEY WERE CHANTING "KILL SADAM"
BUT DEATH DOESN'T CARE WHAT SIDE YOU'RE ON
WHAT SIDE YOU'RE ON...

Your oldest brother never came back from ethe war
You had some brothers that you never knew before
So many died, so many T.V.'s lied
the tears they cried, was it really worth your pride?
Here comes the war choose your weapon, choose a side
A million children that we can horrify
We spend our money on ammo, tanks and guns
No cash for education, try to blame it all on drugs
A drunken man has to get his Thursday fill
A brainwashed soldier has to get his daily kill
Die how you want cause either way you lose
And death doesn't care so it's up to you to choose

    this song really makes you think about how in a war, people basically stop treating people like people, they never think of all the actual people on the other side that they're killing. it also reminds you that the "good guys" die too, they aren't invincible like in the movies

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Amazing
