I love this song. The lyrics remind me of the book The Stranger by philosopher/author Albert Camus. The title character has no real wants and accepts everything in his life as it happens. "It is true because it happened." Ironically, a line in the new Sheryl Crow song Soak Up the Sun has the same theme: "It's not having what you want. It's wanting what you've got." Punk band Face to Face also does a great version of this song.
