bourgeois & maurice - fear! lyrics
bourgeois:
we’re often told fear is divisive
separates us from our fellow man
maurice:
makes us distrustful, paranoid and angry
magnifies our differences til we can’t understand
bourgeois:
what makes other people tick
what’s going through their minds
maurice:
how can we can ever relate to them?
bourgeois:
you might think
what have i got in common
with the westboro baptist church?
maurice:
how can i empathise with isis?
both:
they’re both afraid of g+ys
and i’m terrified of them
but don’t you see?
that’s the very thing that unites humanity
fear!
it brings us together
fear!
in everyone’s heart
fear!
it’s everywhere
the one thing we all share is
fear!
some people are afraid of flying
some people are afraid of dying
some people are of spiders
some people are afraid of migrants
everyone’s afraid of something
everyone’s afraid of something
everyone’s afraid of something
isn’t that something to celebrate?
it transcends language
goes to straight to the soul
it’s a primal urge
that you just can’t control
fear is needed for human survival
that’s why god invented the bible
fear!
it brings us together
fear!
in everyone’s heart
fear!
it’s everywhere
the one thing we all share is
fear!
bourgeois:
[spoken so we went online and we asked people + what are you afraid of? these are some of the things that came back
both:
getting blown up on my way work
g+y people destroying marriage
groups of teenagers
donald trump
being audited by hmrc
or stuck on an island with a load of racists
trans politics (if you’re a 70s feminist)
peanuts (if you’ve got an allergy)
a left wing approach to economic recovery
finding out that there actually is a god
(and he’s quite p+ssed off)
everyone’s afraid of something
everyone’s afraid of something
everyone’s afraid of something
isn’t that something to celebrate?
fear!
it brings us together
fear!
in everyone’s heart
fear!
it’s everywhere
the one thing we all share is
fear!
everyone’s afraid of something like
the long term effects of recreational drug use
everyone’s afraid of something like
one in three of us will get cancer
everyone’s afraid of something like
civil war decimating your homeland
oh, life’s terrifying!
and that’s unifying
fear, it brings us together
fear, in everyone’s heart
fear, it’s everywhere
the one thing we all share
is fear
