Seems like such a happy song. But I take it as being loaded with irony. The first verses seem to be in reference to the heated Bush elections. And if you take that tone and cary it to the end where he says
From every mountain
The water and the land
The world that we've created
The world that we've created
The world that we've created
By working hand in hand
By working hand in hand
then it means something different. To me, we are supposed to look at everything we've done and be ashamed. It's our fault. We've worked together to make quite a mess.
