Song lyrics

"I Want You (She's So Heavy)" by The Beatles
I want you
I want you so bad
I want you
I want you so bad
It's driving me mad
It's driving me mad

I want you
I want you so bad, babe
I want you
I want you so bad
It's driving me mad
It's driving me mad

I want you
I want you so bad, babe
I want you
I want you so bad
It's driving me mad
It's driving me mad

I want you
I want you so bad
I want you
I want you so bad
It's driving me mad
It's driving me mad

She's so heavy
Heavy, heavy, heavy

She's so heavy
She's so heavy
Heavy, heavy, heavy

I want you
I want you so bad
I want you
I want you so bad
It's driving me mad
It's driving me mad

I want you
You know I want you so bad, babe
I want you
You know I want you so bad
It's driving me mad
It's driving me mad
Yeah

She's so



     
The director chose this song because we associate the uncle Sam "I Want You" poster with being drafted to the armed forces of America. The song accurately explain the historical significance of being drafted through the "I want you" phrase and the burden of protecting the liberty of a nation through "She's so heavy". The lyric "It's driving me mad" could be representing the PTSD that comes as a result of being drafted to be in the war. The lyrics could also be speaking of soldiers missing their spouses or vice verse, "You know I want you so bad, babe."
