This song is the best depiction of American society. She’s got blisters on the soles of her feet Oh think twice, ’cause it’s just another day for you, Oh think twice, it’s another day for you and me in paradise The lyricist wants to say that no matter how many times you face failure but you should keep your eyes on the prize.
