about this song
"Five to One" is a song by The Doors, from their 1968 album Waiting for the Sun. "Five to one" is rumored to be the approximate ratio of whites to blacks, young to old, or pot smokers to non-pot smokers in the US in 1967, depending on whom you ask[clarification needed]. A further urban legend has it as the ratio of Viet Cong to American troops in Vietnam.[clarification needed] However, when asked, Jim Morrison said the lyrics were not political.[clarification needed] This would seem quite likely
