Okay, the only thing I'm gonna add to this, since you guys nailed the meaning of the song right on target, is:
You shouldn't cal people idiots for throwing out their interpretation of the song. Yes, it was the strory of Dave Mustaine's lyrics, so his guess wasn't correct, but he was just ASKING if it had anything to do with the book or poem "Of Mice And Men", because someone who hasn't read that book but has heard of it (because it is a very widely heard of book) has no clue what it's about.
The only two types of people I hate on this website are the guys who put other people down for their interpretation of the song being different than theirs, and the type of people who put down other bands. Seriously, who gives a fuck. Metallica and Megadeth both write excellent music, they're both pretty much equal as my top 2 favorite bands and I enjoy listening to them both a lot. Relax, they're both great bands and you should stop being a fucking cockblaster by insulting everyone who doesn't agree with you or talking shit about bands you don't like.
