Big Brother

anonyme


Text anonymous (≤1981). Tune : « On Broadway ».


Big brother tells us
That we are free
To live our life our way.
But all the time we must do everything
That he says
We’re hypnotised by TV and bright lights
To think it’s OK
If we get acceptance then we’ll be happy
And comfortably gay.
 
Forget about plunder and murder and rape
Done in the name of this liberal state
This system so fucked
It just can’t liberate anyway.
Ignore the fact that it’s founded on hate
Cancer and madness is all it creates
To die a slow death is everyone’s fiate
Straight or gay.
 
To be equal with pigs
Cost a price I‘m not willing to pay
For the comfort of a few
The oppression of a few
The oppression of many everyday.
 
If it’s status quo,
then I’ll rock the boat in my own way
For what has the state done
But hate me all my life
Because I’m gay
Yeah the powers that be
Will only fuck over me
Whether I’m straight or gay.
