| the song has sarcastc line all through it. she's saying it wrong how everything on this planet get's torn down and burned up for construction purposes. and how the planet is getting blown up with war and fighting. she says soldiers come quicky because she feels something natural like the earth (dirt) under her feet and they just want to destroy everything. Then we’ll go to Omaha to work and exploit the booming music scene and humility. here she is saying lets go to the place where everyones at and crash it and make everyone unhappy. (still talking to the soldiers) the song is very well written and in a sick way very witty. | |

| Has any one ever thought this song was about the pilgrims and indians? "Oh god come quickly, the execution of all things Let’s start with the bears and the air and mountains, rivers, and streams Then we’ll murder what matters to you and move on to your neighbors and kids Crush all hopes of happiness with disease ‘cause of what you did. " It is manily that stanza that reminds me of pilgrims and what they did to the Indians when you get past the Thanksgiving joy.... Am I strange? | |

| Mhmm. I agree absolutely with Trotsky. Although, I personally feel that it is OK to be stoned. That guy sounds like he/she's never done any before. Open your mind, man. I'm Cereal. Drugs, done responsibly are mostly benefitial. | |

| such a good song, i can totally relate to it right now, 'And if you’re well off, well then I’m happy some for you. But I’d rather not celebrate my defeat and humiliation here with you.' oy. | |

| First off, I love love love this song. The giant crescendo at the beginning all leading up to a single strumming bass is so unexpected and effective. I've always thought this song was about global warming and how we are trashing the environment. "Soldiers come quickly, I feel the earth beneath my feet." meaning "this part of the world is untouched, we better lay down some concrete." and then there's the more obvious lines like "Oh god come quickly, the execution of all things. Let’s start with the bears and the air and mountains, rivers, and streams. " | |
