Commentary:

While trying to survive my divorce holocaust, I was exercising regularly at The Big C Health Club in Concord for no particular reason except that everything else I really wanted to do was either illegal, immoral or unhealthy. Rock and roll radio stations were broadcast over loudspeakers in the exercise room at the Big C and many cops worked out there every day. While miserably pulling myself up on the Gravitron on a typically dreary day in March of 1995, I saw an especially large cop lifting weights and singing along to The Doobie Brothers' song, "Taking it to the Streets". Because the song had been an anthem for anti-war demonstrators upon whom peace officers enjoyed bashing their nightsticks, the disparity between the 60's and the 90's, which has been referred to as the 60's standing on its head, became too much for me. My song title popped into my mind first and I thought it was good enough to justify a song, so the rest of the song wrote itself between the Gravitron, the sauna and the shower.
