lyrics

We’ve all been lectured by experts whose net-worth amounts to zero Cause they’ve been bought for a fair amount of euros
Independent scientists don’t exist they’re a myth like superheroes
I’ve had enough, I need a fucking break
I’ve heard so much shit in the last weeks to last for at least a decade
Now you listen, I’m seeing through your shit as if I had x-ray vision
Cause I’ve been reading essays not watching television
Let’s say I’ve eluded being conditioned by a system
Keeping us imprisoned by controlling our opinion
The media is the establishment there’s no difference
Now before you call me a conspiracy theorist hear this short history lesson
In sixty-seven prickly questions in connection
With Kennedy’s destiny were quickly spreading
The CIA’s integrity at risk and threatened
A recipe to silence defiant interjections
Found its expression in a nifty weapon
A label to denounce all doubts as indiscretion
And by now it’s a heresy to question the supremacy of entities
Readily defending the governments monopoly on verity
Heavily descending on dissident citizens so zealously
Well how about this, fuck you, fuck your psychological warfare
I’m not intimidated I’m just pissed
And I stand four-square against your scare-tactics and your discriminating tricks
And I won’t stop asking questions
In relation to the nine eleven investigation by NIST
Oh if building seven had just never existed
A sentence you’ll find on every agency official’s wish-list
And I’m more than ever
Sick and tired of hearing lame justifications for your war on terror
They’re full of flaws and errors
You fucking pricks call it what it is
It’s a war of terror
An obscure endeavour in a complex scheme for global governance
But my response is simple: fuck the government

You know I can see you
Soaring up above, you think you can’t be touched
Looking down on us, you’re patronising us
Smiling kind of smug, you think you are on top
Sneaky like a fox

Everyone in favour of CETA and TTIP
Is trying to hide the fact that we all are being cheated
Why else are negotiations held in secret
We’re screwed by every single free-trade agreement
So greetings to everyone who leaked bits and pieces
Basically you’re doing the job of the fucking knobs we elected
While they squat on their knees sucking off the corporate elite’s cocks as expected
So what is the conclusion
Let me quote Nuland
Fuck the European Union and its undemocratic institutions
Leaving all the people disillusioned
Fuck exclusion, we need a universal movement
Tearing down the walls cause in the end we’re all just human
Desperately in need of a world more translucent
A free and self-determined life is the solution

about

The Pinch Berlin, Germany

The Pinch messes with hiphop by means of a mic and a trumpet, serving keen obversations on the gloomy condition this dog-eat- dog reality has left us in. The humorous narration is embellished by a jazzy soundscape, reminiscent of the golden boom-bap era. ... more
