electric six - dark politics lyrics
[verse 1]
ooh!
dark politics leads to the best drag
if your sad about the mess we’re in
for all the negatives about the reichstag
look what it did for east berlin
authoritarians beget subversion
remember this when you get b-mmed out
as the buyer rubs another one out on you
so give your pretty painted eyes unto a virgin
ooh yeah!
well night just fell
we been hear before
we can’t find the keys to turn off the war
but the optimist in me is never sad
the gl-ss is half full but the waters tastes bad
because the big night has already spread
and n-body cares how many books you read
so just enjoy yourself
and make some art
then set it on fire and rip it apart
[chorus]
smile
smile
it will be dark here for a good long while
and ooh there will be times when you want to die
smile
smile
and even though you may be oozing bile
and ooh it’s neutralized by the salty tears you cry
[verse 2]
when baron von schnitzel turned the last oven off
he left the lights on for baron von stroganoff
who hopped the next junket down to argentina
he had a baby boy who became a ballerina
she had enough one day
and she joined the circus
she came to america
was forced to twerk it
she had enough again
after some persistence
she switched teams and joined the resistance
she danced for the emperor
danced for the king
danced for the president
it’s all the same thing
and when she got close enough to be on his arm
she became love in the form a bomb
boom!
hey!
woohoo!
[chorus]
smile
smile
it will be dark here for a good long while
and ooh there will be times when you want to die
smile
smile
and even though you may be oozing bile
and ooh it’s neutralized by the salty tears you cry
[verse 3]
the apocalypse will be televised
the revolution will be tossed aside
so pledge your allegiance to fat white guys
while the snowflakes run and hide
the streets are all filled with fire
as the soldiers come marching in
so just mind the fences and the barbed wire
make nice with the side that wins
and
woohoo!
ooh!
dark politics walks the long plank
look no further than tiananmen square
for every chinaman that stares down a big tank
there’s a billion that just don’t care
now the hangman rings the broken bell
and the reaper, he leads the dance
and the world spins around like a carousel
and never plays the musical chairs
[chorus]
smile
smile
it will be dark here for a good long while
and ooh there will be times when you want to die
smile
smile
and even though you may be oozing bile
and ooh it’s neutralized by the salty tears you cry
yeah!
