I don't quite know how to take that song, largely because I don't know much about Alvin Lee, assuming he wrote it. Most of those 60's rockers were liberal, though, so I have to take it at face value. If it was meant as a slam against socialists, it's a damn good one. I'll try to get more info tonight and report back if I find out anything. "I'd Love to Change the World" does sound suspect, though.

You may be right. Certainly most of the songwriters of that era (or this) would want it to mean what you see in it. I know nothing of Alvin Lee (writer?) either, but when I first heard it as a kid when it came out, it struck a chord in me. Maybe I misinterpreted and am giving him way too much credit, lol.
