"Is your money that good?" (Dylan B.)

 

Ich fände das Alles überhaupt nicht schlimm, wenn es parallel dazu nicht auch diese erbarmungslose, maximal-martialische Propaganda, die Kriegshetze und die hirntoten Eskalationsorgasmen auf beiden Seiten gäbe. Warum klagt niemand über die kognitive Dissonanz? Warum zeigt niemand auf den riesengroßen, pink-glitzernden Elefanten im Raum?

Und da ich selbst schon völlig irritiert bin, die allerwichtigste Frage:

Wie erklären die "Masters of War" auf beiden Seiten ihren Soldaten und den zivilen Opfern auf beiden Seiten diese unfasslichen Widersprüche?


(stark verändert via I-net)




¹ Einfach mal selbst "Reisen nach Mariupol" googeln...



Come you masters of warYou that build the big gunsYou that build the death planesYou that build all the bombsYou that hide behind wallsYou that hide behind desksI just want you to knowI can see through your masks
You that never done nothin'But build to destroyYou play with my worldLike it's your little toyYou put a gun in my handAnd you hide from my eyesAnd you turn and run fartherWhen the fast bullets fly
Like Judas of oldYou lie and deceiveA world war can be wonYou want me to believeBut I see through your eyesAnd I see through your brainLike I see through the waterThat runs down my drain
You fasten all the triggersFor the others to fireThen you sit back and watchWhen the death count gets higherYou hide in your mansionWhile the young people's bloodFlows out of their bodiesAnd is buried in the mud
You've thrown the worst fearThat can ever be hurledFear to bring childrenInto the worldFor threatening my babyUnborn and unnamedYou ain't worth the bloodThat runs in your veins
How much do I knowTo talk out of turnYou might say that I'm youngYou might say I'm unlearnedBut there's one thing I knowThough I'm younger than youThat even Jesus would neverForgive what you do
Let me ask you one questionIs your money that good?Will it buy you forgivenessDo you think that it could?I think you will findWhen your death takes its tollAll the money you madeWill never buy back your soul
And I hope that you dieAnd your death will come soonI'll follow your casketBy the pale afternoonAnd I'll watch while you're loweredDown to your deathbedAnd I'll stand over your grave'Til I'm sure that you're dead.

Dylan B.
