Grave New World

"Back to order" is the spirit of these times
And its matter, all the silence of its crimes
Market prophets blessing final Histories
Show-biz vampires sucking blood from realities
Wall street churches built on homeless walls and streets
Entertainment celebrating thought´s defeat...

Without love, without soul
Without heart, without mind...
In this grave new world
Deaf and dumb and blind

Right wing eagles flying over legal theft
Only anger of distress is all that´s left
Racist raiders are the winners of the race
And the darskins ride the horses of disgrace
If you think twice, you may be called Bertold Brecht
And that poet is somehow not too correct...

Swords of wisdom are the keepers of the key
Sin redeemers selling heavens on TV
Crooks and thieves will have you begging on your knees
That´s the bargain if you want to get your fees
Lady Rainbow, all your colours have been sold
Tell me Beauty, are you worth a pot of gold?
