Well, yeah.
Mercy. There are probably a lot of Jim Morrison fans here, too.
Karl,
I wanna tell you ‘bout Texas Radio and the Big Beat
Comes out of the Virginia swamps
Cool and slow with plenty of precision
With a back beat narrow and hard to master
Some call it heavenly in it’s brilliance
Others, mean and rueful of the Western dream
snip
Listen to this and I’ll tell you ‘bout the heartache
I’ll tell you ‘bout the heartache and the loss of God
I’ll tell you ‘bout the hopeless night
The meager food for souls forgot
I’ll tell you ‘bout the maiden with raw iron soul
I’ll tell you this
No eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn

When I listen to Morrison, I hear a brutal sarcastic attack directed at the culture and his own audience of useful idiots.
American Pie is certainly more direct.
