THE GOVERNMENT COMPETENCE SONG

Hey you wanna see me NUKE my own channel? The song is now on Spotify! This song is based on “Солдатами не рождаются“ (“Soldatami ne rozhdayutsa“ / “Soldiers are not born“) by Egor Letov, my favorite singer ever: Lyrics translation to English: It’s a song about the Soviet-Afghan war, and more specifically how the Soviet elites were partying while they sent people to die in Afghanistan, then silenced angry grief with patriotic songs. I can’t help but think it’s similar to how our elites are partying while they lock us up, then silence anger with fearmongering and scapegoating. It’s fascinating and scary how many of Egor Letov’s lyrics apply to today’s Western societies. Instrumentalist’s channel: --------------------------------------- LYRICS: [1] You can never find a good spot that’s empty So we threw all the excess corpse down a ditch We the elites work for your health tirelessly Never lied, sold you out, or blame switched to get rich [CHORUS] Cuz government’s never got it wrong A government can’t be wrong it’s never the government at fault it’s the disobedient’s fault [2] You can never find a good spot that is clean Trust me bro you’re still livin’ in a free country you still have the right to go out protestin’ just like the cops have the right to kick your teeth in [CHORUS] Cuz government’s never got it wrong a government can’t be wrong We don’t lock you down because we like to we lock you down because we “have to“ [3] You can never find a good spot without sin I just turned the money printer in full spin Saving your savings like Weimar Germany You know afterwards it’s back to democracy [CHORUS] Cuz government’s never got it wrong a government can’t be wrong There’s tons of historical precedents of benevolent governments [4] You can never be a tyrant with no scapegoat Everything bad in our country is their fault So I’ve made first and second class citizenry This has always been in the right side of History [CHORUS] Cuz government’s never got it wrong a government can’t be wrong Human rights require a QR code All I can say is you’re welcome [FINAL CHORUS] Cuz government’s never got it wrong a government can’t be wrong We must trust the WHO Just don’t ask about Taiwan tho
