oh my goodness, bohemianEagle...great use of my favorite kerouac quote!
i don't think this song was written to apply to a certain situation. this song is about a man who is idealistic about mankind as a whole. he is stating that despite the shit in the world, he refuses to give up and give in...he believes that he can change the world by starting with himself.
"what good is a cynic with no better plan" is my favorite line. he's saying that if we're going to bitch about the world, then we are only making it worse. to bring on change we need to take responsibility for ourselves and be the better person.
