You thought it was about… but learned it was about.

I just found out that not only is "Morning Dew," a song played a lot by the Grateful Dead and its various incarnations, A- actually a cover (I know they played a lot of covers, I just didn't know this was), and B- not a sweet song about nature in the morning, but actually about being the last people alive on earth after an apocalypse. The songwriter saw a movie called "On the Beach" about a global nuclear holocaust and it inspired the song.
