I love this song so much! I've always thought the lyrics were about Red Mars by Kim Stanley Robinson.
"...Bulldozing up canal walls, They’re gonna tap that icecap too and when they do they’re gonna make that green map blue" points directly to the Mars Trilogy (me thinks).
Awesome song....But what do you expect from a song writing Machine...I may consider myself to be a metalhead,but From the pixies up to today even this guy knows how to write good songs.Anyway,just my worthless opinion.NICE POST. THANKS!
@cleverandrew123 I absolutley agree. this should be an FM radio staple.. but ..NOOOO we have to hear: queen, and boston and journey, heart tompetty,eagles, over, and over, and over and over , and over over, and over, and over and over , and over over, and over, and over and over , and over I agree ,,with you phucking scandolous man scandolus
@wwgt Dude what the hell I love Boston, Journey, Heart, Tom Petty, Eagles, as well as Frank Black. Hell, if I lived somewhere where that was ALL they played on the radio I'd be freaking content.

@ThePlacidman Yeah. I love that too! My favorite part though is the "bum bum bum bum" right after it. It drives me wild!
