| Rage Against the Machine – Down Rodeo Lyrics

Rodeo is one of the richest streets in Beverly Hills... all the upscale shops and such... (and it is the right song, they just missed a couple lines). The song is mostly about the difference between the millionares that shop on the street and the poor that make the stuff... |

I think he's kinda attacking the whole music industry. There is always the "man" that decides what's good and what is not. I think this song is about how there is not "man" but rather it's the population's choice on what's cool and what's not. Kinda like democracy. (ref: I'm the man, you're the man, he's the man, ...) |

I don't really think this is necessarily "the end of the world" song, but rather how we are ignoring our basic natual instincts and basic common sence in favor of higher education (we can explain how a pond's ecosystem works but we can't catch a fish). That is why he keeps saying learn to swim. Swimming was one of those things that every kid learned with their parents really early. But now everyone's pushing for these high-tech jobs, those important little things keep getting forgoten. We care more about our contracts...cars...ext. And this is going to cause the world to end... we are going to forget how to live and the world will end |

Kinda what everyone else is hinting at, it's about people that act differently, try to be punk, or such just for attention. They act like they want to kill themselves for attention. Young kids complaining about little things (drama queens part) just to get attention and not because the problem is actually going to shake the world (put it on a fault line). I kinda think the video parallels this - the girls do their vandalism for attention. They wear little clothing for attention. |
