You might have to read between the lines a bit ?

Lyrics

Back in the old days,his life,was in a haze,
He was caught,in a maze,getting out,was a craze,
He was going thru a phase,it continued to amaze,
Life seemed like,a daze,and would it end,in a blaze,
He would make, the front page,its just this new age,
You can't judge folks with a gauge,they were just let out of their cage,
Some folks are, in a rage,they want to take,centre stage,
They were struggling,with low wage,they'll just ride off,into the sage,

Once in awhile,this takes place,its just part,of the rat race,
Each one is a different case,they require,their own space,
They all have a different face,maybe they can't keep up the pace,
Lets give them,a chance to erase,they'll be gone,without a trace,
Maybe they weren't, really there,we see a mirage,when we stare,
If we minded our own biz,we wouldn't worry,about his,
Then this trouble,it would fiz,and we wouldn't be in such a tiz,
And if we don't know who he is,that gives us, quite a quiz,
Break
He might be,just a young lad,who lost his way,and that's sad,
He might have been, Brainwashed,and his ideas,couldn't be squashed,
It seems to be,quite a waste,that this lad,lost his taste,
No one, could help us see,that young lad,he used to be,
His ideals,weren't the same,that caused him,to change his game,
That got him,in a mess,and the rest of us,trying to guess,
We new him,in his right mind,he was polite,and kind,
If we got to him,earlier on,we could have known,where he went wrong,
Chorus
That's the way life goes for some,they'll always be,on the run,
If they take up,with the wrong bunch,they did it,on a hunch,
And they were Brainwashed,by them,and they were singing a different hymn,
We didn't recognize him no more,now he shops at a different store !
