This song is a poem to myself, it helps me to live... In case of fire, break the glass and move on into your own...
Poetry, you say? Hmm... I know a good one: “They *squee!* you up, your mum and dad. They may not mean to, but they do. They fill you with the faults they had And add some extra, just for you. But they were *squee!*ed up in their turn By fools in old-style hats and coats, Who half the time were soppy-stern And half at one another's throats. Man hands on misery to man. It deepens like a coastal shelf. Get out as early as you can, And don't have any kids yourself.” ― Philip Larkin
I'd say it's about big oil and the other environment-killing megacorporations. It's probably mostly about human greed, and the way that people will turn a blind eye to suffering and destruction for the sake of personal gain.
