To me, Song of the Century is like its supposed to be, the opening track. It's like the intro to a movie before the title appears on the screen. It paints a picture that they want to convey in the album.
Basically, there's war that has been going on for what seems like a lifetime, propaganda is common and no one does anything about illegal acts anymore. All that's left is people becoming afraid and even a bit selfish.
This is setting our stage of America, the America that truly is what this song portrays it. And it's a bit scary on how accurate it is.
