about this song

The song deals with political issues in the US, and most likely the US Foreign Policy specifically. McIlrath shows his distaste for the lackadaisical attitude of the people in authority over America, who just sit back and watch the country crumble, and don’t do anything about it other than start wars. The title references a situation from chess player Alexander Kotov’s book, Think Like A Grandmaster, in which a player thinks for a long time about making a difficult move
