| the title doesn't have the word "ghetto" in it. the song is about how the white man has f-ed things up and really doesn't care. neither the citizens nor the politicians. "just sit up there and just get high" is talking about presidents and congressmen who have a coutry club attitude, who don't give a whit for the common people. "things going on that you don't know" is obviously a reference to secret government shenanigans. | |

| close but not right. as the title obviosly states--its about the ghetto. the lines about sending too many people over the ocean and too much money on the moon refers to the misuse of the governments focus and loot that could of been spent on fixing the ghettos. the line about ruining the air is referin to how people blame shit on people in ghettos and i like the part about how "i think they just sit up there and just get high" shows the way people regard people i ghettos. good song. i dig the piano | |

| Sounds like the corruptness of the government to me. Too many lives they've spent across the ocean. Sending people to war^ Too much money been spent upon the moon. Focusing upon moon travel when we have problems here on Earth They're goin ruin the air we breathe Pollution | |
