| The Tragically Hip – Wheat Kings Lyrics
| 17 years ago
|
|
This song was inspired by David Milgard, he was accused of killing a nurse in saskatoon when he was 17. Although he swore on his inocence he was convicted and sent to prison for twenty years. The song basically mocks how once a dna test proved his innocence that everyone acted as if they believed the protestors (mainly his mom) against his imprisonment. He was later awarded a large sum of money from the fed government for the error thats basically why its called wheat kings, because the government basically saw the wrong that happend in their "kingdom" if you will and through money at it when of course they stole the bulk of this mans best years |

okay i might just be crazy..
it reminds me of communists or a dictatorship
when it says "a riot grows and his eyes open up , i once believed that i would set you in line" this one man has tried to control these people and then it flashes to another narrator "If only I had the strength then maybe you could believe in something else." he is feeling responsible hios children must live like this and they are the ones asking why it has to be this way in their country the last lines make sense now"You stole out like my life. So I'm engaged to smile." the government is over ran or they flee |
