What exactly were the political messages which were being sent out in songs during the 60's? If somebody could send me a link to any lyrics which were considerably more detailed than

- "Don't drop bombs, man"
- "Open your mind, man"
- "Love everybody, man"
- "Feel the freedom and fight the man, man"
- "Revolution, man"

Then I'd appreciate it, because most of the so called political songs I've heard from the 60s were actually about as politically compelling as one of those t-shirts with "Havana" written on the front.
