Viewed from outer space
the earth is pleasing blue
unless you’re in a nutshell
in the middle of the sea
people are drowning here
in front of our doors
while you keep jabbering
of bla bla – no space
You keep saying that you are so sorry
tell never ending tales of heart and glory
provide for everyone a place to be safe now!
and get to the end of that shameful story
a war for water strikes
or a religious war
a war for power
and the all-time-favourite war for more
our border with the world
lets in who seems to fit
but not humanity
is the scale you measure with
Imagine you wake up one morning
in the ruins of your house
just dust and stones and death around you you scream for help
but no one gives a damn fuck
You keep saying that you are so sorry
tell never ending tales of heart and glory
provide for everyone a place to be safe now!
and get to the end of that shameful story
viewed from outer space
the earth is pleasing blue
unless you’re in a nutshell
in the middle of the sea
people are drowning here
in front of our doors
while you keep jabbering
of bla bla – no space
piece of the cake
would you please shut up!
