Nerdworld Soundtrack, Bailout/Financial Apocalypse Edition, Part 13: Matchbox Twenty

This is an old song, but I still love it. You know, I remember when it was brand-new. I'm a fossil.

Part of the lyrics evoke (for me, anyway) the feelings of the unhappy modern American taxpayer ("I've been cheated . . . I've been wronged"). Another part of the lyrics seems to resonate with the whole idea of nonsensical, money-grubbing, power-grabbing policymakers and their attitude toward that unhappy American taxpayer ("I want to push you around . . . I want to push you down . . . I want to take you for granted . . . I will, I will!")

I give you . . . "Push" by Matchbox Twenty.
