There was an error. This is not about the Vietnam war! This is an existential song about how people's actions and thoughts are so controlled by the time of day, their lives pass them by without their being aware of it. Scoutmaster on August 24, Sorry Scout, but Rumple is correct.
The song is about a war that was going on for years as if time had stopped and how nothing seems to change. Every day the country was hearing of more men dying, so that every day became like every other day, so much so that they were hard to tell them apart. The guy in the song is saying until something changes end the war , nothing is changing.
So when you ask him what time it is, he is saying stop being so self involved and think about what's going on we've all got time enough to cry. General Comment Listening to the lyrics, I think the underlying message of this song is that everything in life is relative and that nothing is certain.
This song was supposedly a protest against the Vietnam War, but anyone listening to it for the first time would probably not pick up on that. No Replies Log in to reply.
