Thank you very much and God bless you.

Still one of my favorite songs as a born late boomer.

Mods I know, this song has been posted many times, but now it seems Pete Townsend was prophetic, about the modern democrat party as a teenage wasteland.

I was told it was a poem written by a Vietnam Army vet that was in his 20’s fighting in the war. As the “old” guy he stood in contrast to most of his platoon that were in their teens. He called Vietnam a “teenage wasteland”.
