No Picture Graeme Wanna Be	#1 by Graeme Cook at Jun 30, 1995 at 6:48 AM EST
	Definitely, it's about a difference in point of view from the world generally and humans (their androcentric p.o.v and attitude to the world generally). As humans we like to think that there is purpose for us within the world, and that it was somehow meant "for us". Vedder refutes this, by arguing that actually it's an "accident", and therefore is no more "for us", than for any other vegetation or animal specie on the planet...?

No Picture James Wanna Be	#2 by James Valentine at Sep 1, 1997 at 5:40 AM EST
	the 9/11 theory could be true. the first part is about the circle of life. the second part is about how the circle of life also counts for human beings. the line daddy's gone up in flames indeed could refer to 9/11

No Picture Andy Wanna Be	#3 by Andy Ketron at Jul 12, 2004 at 6:30 AM EST
	Okay, now I love this song. It took some listens to get used to it. I'm sorry for making a quick judgment.

No Picture Humey Average	#4 by Humey at Mar 12, 2006 at 12:51 PM EST
	Yeah this song deserves more attention. Greatsong.

No Picture David Average	#5 by David White at Apr 1, 2006 at 7:47 AM EST
	i see this as somewhat of a reference to 9/11 and the threats we live in now....and how we are to grow out of the remains of this tragedy
