Charlie's Shoes
Billy Walker
Protagonist begrudges his buddy's good fortune in finding the "perfect" beautiful girl
...but when his buddy breaks up with her and our protagonist moves in and "takes over" as her lover (finally getting his wish) he ends up suffering the backlash of a kind of "poetic justice" as he learns (the hard way) why his buddy could no longer stand her or continue supporting a woman of her stature.
Lookin' Back
Bob Seger
Strong anti-Vietnam War sentiments abound in this song, but Seger's lyrics also tear into the perils of social class as well
Good News Week

Most "progress" is primarily bullshit. More about how to "make us look younger than our age" or about how to "make television screens look more realistic". And the media's just as full-of-shit with their announcements of technological and medical "breakthroughs"
...all grandiose fanfare, but never coming up with anything that actually improves or enhances our quality-of-life
