Man i hate it when someone mocks a band and everyone else jumps in and abuses him for it... well actualy i find it kinda amusing.. stupid idiots shuld always be diplomatic when mocking somthing..
I agree that the most stupid thing is when a such a good band as metallica sells out so catistrophicly see them selling dvds of there just general life makes me sick.
however i do like metallica for there music, even load and reload. like the rest of the world, st anger=meh,
Now that i got that out of the way, i see this song being (like many metal songs) about war, "see you crawling" and :there aint no heroes here" fit into that genre so nicly...
and the whole verse
Oh, play the game so nicely
Oh, check, it's your move now
Yeah, we're standing in this jungle
Yeah, with some things I have found
"the game" is chess which is a war game in itself and is often used as a metaphor for war. when i hear "jungle" i think vietnam, infact the whole snake theme fits in there quite well, america went there looking for a war and they sure as hell got one. well thats sterotyping americans i apologise, it works vice versa, look at wat happened wen any country attacks another country, generaly, they fight back.
the puppets with the tap shoes are soldiers, doing a final march through town or watever before heading overseas.
Havent i seen you here before.. obvious, war, it just keeps happening
@Snailman8 I'm sorry I know this post is almost a decade old but it's STILL stupid enough to make me facepalm XD your comment on vietnam made me laugh so hard. I mean, for one, the war was between north and south vietnam, the USA was just helping south vietnam fight for independence. America didn't go there looking for a war. Read a history book. Dumbass.

@Snailman8@sassymetalhead the USA went to Vietnam to stop the invasion of "red" (communism). The American's might not have gone their explicitly for war, and technically it was between South and North Vietnam but America very much was part of the Vietnam War for over a decade.

It also wasn't a war for independence per se. The South had been separated from the North by international influence (first France then America). In effect the Vietnam War was a puppet of the cold war.
