Analyzing "The Times They Are a Changin"

http://www.bobdylan.com/#/songs/times-they-are-changin
Dylan said in an interview with Cameron Crowe that he wanted to write an anthem for the moment. This song is about how different everything is becoming and how society is changing and that the older generation can either change with society or get out of the way. " Come mothers and fathers, Throughout the land, And don't criticize, What you can't understand, Your sons and your daughters, Are beyond your command, Your old road is, Rapidly agin'. Please get out of the new one, If you can't lend your hand, For the times they are a-changin'."
