Wat valt er na de gebeurtenissen van de afgelopen week nog toe te voegen aan deze song? Wellicht als enige dat je tegenwoordig geen neutronenbom, Pinochet of tanks meer nodig hebt. Anno 2015 hebben we de financiële markten en de EU. En natuurlijk de meelopers binnen laflinks (hoi, PvdA en Groen Links).
Efficiency and progress is ours once more
Now that we have the Neutron bomb
It’s nice and quick and clean
And gets things done
Away with excess enemy
But no less value to property
No sense in war but perfect sense at home
The sun beams down on a brand new day
No more welfare tax to pay
Unsightly slums gone up in flashing light
Jobless millions whisked away
At last we have more room to play
All systems go to kill the poor tonight
Gonna kill kill kill, kill kill the poor
Kill kill kill, kill kill the poor
Kill kill kill, kill kill the poor, tonight
Behold the sparkle of champagne
The crime rate’s gone feel free again
Life’s a dream with you, Miss Lily White
Jane Fonda on the screen today
Convinced the liberals, it’s okay
So let’s get dressed and dance away the night
While they, kill kill kill, kill kill the poor
Kill kill kill, kill kill the poor
Kill kill kill, kill kill the poor, tonight
Kill kill kill, kill kill the poor
Kill kill kill, kill kill the poor
Kill kill kill, kill kill the poor, tonight
Behold the sparkle of champagne
The crime rate’s gone feel free again
Life’s a dream with you, Miss Lily White
Jane Fonda on the screen today
Convinced the liberals, it’s okay
So let’s get dressed and dance away the night
Kill kill kill, kill kill the poor
Kill kill kill, kill kill the poor
Kill kill kill, kill kill the poor, tonight
Dead Kennedys
