The song is indeed freakin' awesome, no doubt. At first listen, I thought it was about a plea to American kids to take some action, but then it was obviously a song about our ol' US oil lust.
I'm trying to figure out the meaning behind the "we are just a child" and "we are old as hell." Maybe it's saying that America is acting like the wise elder and the whiny kid at the same time? Or something like that?
Kick-ass album. The Thermals step it up a little more with each release.
