Memepool - We are all terrorists now (2005)
we are all terrorists now [6.76 mb] - memepool
This is your country, love it or leave it;
Beat the shit out of anybody who criticises it.
The blind lead the mute, lead the deaf, lead the dead
The politically correct, the criminally inept,
The Word made Flesh….
We are all terrorists now.
We are all terrorists now.
Gimme your poor, yours starved, your huddled masses,
Your immigrants and underclasses
Asylum seekers without work passes
Human flotsam in a sea of shame
Terrorists by another name
Paedophiles, thought-criminals,
And all the other subliminals
Who pass like phantoms through our world.
We are all terrorists now.
We are all terrorists now.
Hijab-hooded muslims stalking your towns
Civil Rights junkies whose sympathies are known.
Off-message weapons inspectors aid and abet,
Women with blast-injuries who cannot forget,
Military Crusaders and their cold-regret,
We are all terrorists now.
We are all terrorists now.
We are all terrorists now.
Meanwhile, back at the ranch
Apache gunships and grunts from Ohio
Kill only terrorists.
War without end,
War without terror waged against terror.
The limbless, the blind, the halt and the lame;
Suffer the little children who die in your name.
Whatever you call them their fate is the same.
We are all terrorists now.
We are all terrorists now.
We are all terrorists now.
(No-one is innocent)
Nothing now can ever be known
All is assertion in the name of the Crown.
We don’t do evidence anymore
It’s become an encumbrance to the practise of law.
The gagged accused may now have his say,
Now just be careful okay?
We know what you’re thinking
But we can’t tell you who, where, what, or why.
Your guilt’s a State secret
YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO COMPLY!
Remember you’re nothing when you’re sent down
For an indefinite sentence for an indefinite crime.
Don’t oppose the State if you can’t do the time!
We are all terrorists now.
Death be not proud
We are all martyrs now.
We are all terrorists now.
Blend into the crowd
For we are all terrorists now.
We are all terrorists now.
(Prove who you are
Prove you’re no threat)
We are all terrorists now.
(You may be out of luck,
You may be desperate.)
We are all terrorists now.
We are all terrorists now.
The bombs in Spain fall mainly on the trains.
We are all terrorists now.
We are all terrorists now.
Thank you very much.
YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO COMPLY!

I think you do not need to obsess about all the worlds problems every minute of every day. We only live one life - Just enjoy it as much as possible. The world is not full of all bad people - That is just mostly what we hear about. I believe the world is 75% GOOD/25% EVIL. Lets obsess about the good & maybe that is what will make things better.

It’s true that probably the majority of people are good people but it’s also true that the majority of people with power are bad people. Until that changes we will never be able to feel at peace because there will be no peace. It’s hard not to obsess about the world’s problems when that’s all you can see (in the media etc.). It would be a big mistake to push aside the topic of the song because that’s something that affects our everyday lives. It’s a problem that won’t go away but needs to be sorted. So yes, lets focus on the positive, but just as much, lets focus on the negative and make that positive too. If “we are all terrorists now”, at least that makes us equal (or equally bad). Hah.
Christ on a bike! What fucking planet are you empty-headed pantywaists living on? You’re exactly the kind of fence-sitting twats who like to look the other way whilst the shit comes down on somebody else’s head. Wake up and get angry about something.
take note, gentle readers, the sheriff of nothing is the lyricist and vocalist of memepool, and his ire should not be underestimated…
