lyrics

Songfacts®:

With lyrics by lead singer Corey Taylor, this song speaks out against the policies of US president George Bush. Some lyric interpretation:

"We're more in danger than before you took power" - suggests that things in the USA were much better before Bush took power.

"As long as idiots are in your corner, you could set us all on fire" - suggests that the slightest influence on Bush could cause him to make a stupid decision.

"Everything you've done is killing everyone" - suggests that Bush is making the wrong decisions, resulting in people's deaths. >>>

Enrique from Las Vegas, NvMike in my opinion the female in "She only wanted the world" is speaking of America as it has always been refered as femanine
Mike from Fresno, Cathe whole song makes sense, but what does he mean in the line "She only wanted the world "? Where does he get the female from who is "she" that is he is talking about?
Jerimias from Nuuk, GreenlandMasterpiece! Love it!
