| dude...RTrain, are you saying that someone's opinion is wrong? you're the one who's comepletely wrong. Well, excuse me for not seeing things the way you do, your majesty. You're not even sure what this song means...nobody does. You don't know what the writer was thinking when he wrote it. People here just write what they THINK the song means. So for you to say that someone's thoughts on this song are wrong is just way absurd. | |

| yeah, this is definately against capitalism, I set in my cubicle in a large american corporation, and think about how I'm "part of it" and this song bascially makes me say, "fuck it", cause everyone is part of it some way or another. | |

| Wow, RTrain, you're the idiot. Although the writer of this song probably dind't have God in mind at all when he wrote this, devo sex explained that that's what he/she got out of it. That's what this website was made for, for people to explain what a song means to THEM. So stop putting other people down for interpreting things differently than you. | |

| I don't know how to edit other peoples lyrics, ,but Emokid you forgot the yeah your part of it, which is just as important as the first your part of it. Also it is "And theres a guy ABOVE ME and he is washing windows" I am pretty sure that the above me pertains to the fact that a guy washing windows is not a slave in the same way most americans are to the capitolistic socity our goverment so eagerly adapted. So morally a window washer is above the singer of the song, either travis or a fictional person travis has created through a lyrical masterpeice. | |

| I agree with Bobo.... everyone has opinions, and no one can be right or wrong. It's like poetry. Some people connect to it differently. That's one of the most wonderous things about music and poetry and any form of written art. People can look as shallow or as deep into something as they want. Oh, and btw... I love this song!! | |

| Great song live. Most people get thrown off by its happy sound. They're basically pointing out social inequalities and injustices in American Society. | |

| I'm down with RTrain. Have you ever meet Travis from Piebald. The guy is nuts and one of the raddest dudes ever. i can almost guranttee that he wasn't thinking about god when he wrote this song. For god sakes, the man wrote a son about why his mom should be president on his solo record. Don't read that far in to it. | |

| But if that song means that to them, that person is an idiot for thinking like that, because it's completely wrong. | |
