Americans don't read poetry? How did Charles Bukowski sell all those books? Neil's genius was always in the sweet simplicity of the lyrics and the guitar riffs. My favorite war-themed song is the Kinks "Some Mother's Son". An excerpt...
Two soldiers fighting in a trench One soldier glances up to see the sun And dreams of games he played when he was young And then his friend calls out his name It stops his dream and as he turns his head A second later he is dead Some mother's son lies in a field Back home they put his picture in a frame But all dead soldiers look the same While all the parents stand and wait To meet their children coming home from school Some mother's son is lying dead
