'Badge'
I grew up in more liberal times. When I was in high school -- in Texas, no less -- I played Cream's "Badge" to my English class. It was part of an assignment. Now I have no effing idea what the lyrics mean.
Granted, I'll never forgive Clapton for screwing Pattie over.

Playing "Badge" for your class...well done!
Hi, aparker: What he said.
My favorite Christmas present last year was the CD of the Cream reunion gig. Didn't quite sound the same as it did in high school, but ...
But the lyrics, dammit! Is it a guy thing that I'll never understand?
Nothing sounds the same as it did in high school. My big brother has sent me CDs of two of my big favorites from back then, Tim Hardin and Bubble Puppy. Lovely, I suppose, but problematic.
The kid is married to Mabel! What's so hard to understand, for God's sake?
You're right, of course, fiddler. How silly of me.
OK, you've convinced me. I'm going to talk the band into working up "Theme for an Imaginary Western." Another bluegrass first.
