To avoid misunderstandings, I want to make one thing clear: I am a fan of America (once I travelled from New York to Los Angeles in a rented car), I love the changing, beautiful landscapes, I like the American people, the friendly policeman in Atlanta who is willing to explain the way three times if you ask him and the smiling sales lady in a supermarket in Dallas… As a more or less scientifically educated person, myself, I also do appreciate all the scientific achievements by Americans without that our world of today would be a different, a much poorer one…
However, what I cannot get to like at all concerning America (no matter how much I try) is its dangerous and hypocritical foreign policy. The lyrics below are meant to make people a bit more aware of “the truth behind the truth” in an ironical way. Though they might be a source of controversial opinions, if I had made only one person to think a little bit more about it, I would have achieved what I have meant to…


We are “democratic”

Sometimes I think of James D. Watson, Martin Luther King and Willie Dixon
and some other great, bright minds till my thoughts do fade
away to El Salvador, the Indians, to Vietnam and Nixon,
for luck, there was Watergate…

I don`t believe in advertisements, in too bad news and too good intentions,
that they all are true, all those pictures that they “tape”,
I don`t believe in “just wars”, “scoundrel states”, nor in the Geneva conventions,
no, not after Abu Ghraib…

(refrain:)
Yeah!!!
Come, let us be pathetic,
when I play games I always get frenetic,
I just love “the show”…

Let`s take it for athletics,
take your gun and let us kill “fanatics”,
we`re the “good guys”, our wars are “democratic”,
it`s just good to know,
it`s so good to know,
we are “democratic”,
oh, it`s so good to know…



Do you really believe uranium is not responsible for cancer?-
the statistics in Serbia tell another truth…
“It`s just depleted…”, for everythin` the Pentagon seems to have an answer:
“this coherence is not proved…”

I`ve heard some rumours `bout 9/11 (nine eleven) and the last economic crises…
I`ve heard some rumours `bout some new world order plans…
and I`m scared as all`s `bout profits and the Wallstreet and skyrocketing prices
and gas in Afghanistan…

(refrain:)
Yeah!!!
Come, let us be pathetic,
when I play games I always get frenetic,
I just love “the show”…

Let`s take it for athletics,
take your gun and let us shoot “fanatics”,
we`re the “good guys”, our wars are “democratic”,
it`s just good to know,
it`s so good to know,
we are “democratic”,
oh, it`s so good to know…

…my dear friend, all wars`re “demon-cratic”,
that`s just for you to know…
