Attention! It's not 1941 You're in this apartment Filled with books Attention! There are no decapitated corpses here No smashed heads of little children Breathe It's not 1918 There are no pogroms You're here, now in the 2020s Nothing like that could happen now Right?
The news bangs on about our impending doom People willing to accept fascism For a laugh Without having a clue What fascism actually entails Until they will Nothing matters anyway right? No gods, no masters, no morality Neighbors murdering neighbors In a carnival atmosphere Laughing while they rape daughters In front of fathers His last image a violation of innocence Before he's mercifcully shot dead All for a laugh All for a laugh
And the news keeps telling me There's nothing we can do It's inevitable We'll face our retribution for existing They have no clue about the depths of human Depravity No fucking clue Until it overcomes them And they celebrate the hatred Cheer on their retribution Party over the corpses And curse the dead for making them be so cruel
But hey It's not 1941 Nothing like that can happen here Our fascism will be different It'll just be for a laugh
