"I'd Love To Change The World" by Ten Years After

We started watching "I Am Cait" season 2 last night, there was some talk about changing the world and it reminded me of this song.

However, in listening to it again, I'm don't agree with many of the lyrics.  I debated whether to even post it.  It starts off with: "Everywhere is freaks and harries, dykes and fairies.  Tell me where is sanity". Since I can identify as a freak, dyke and fairy, are they saying I'm insane??

And it goes on to say "Tax the rich to feed the poor, until there are no rich no more".  I just a Bill Maher clip about that exact subject the other day.  They taxed the rich and now California is the worlds sixth largest economy in the world, all by itself.  He listed  several states that cut the taxes on the rich and they are drowning debt.

So I disagree with some of the lyrics in this song.  But I do want to change the world to make it better for all us "freaks".
