Haider Songtext

von Attila The Stockbroker

Born and raised in Austria, he who would be Chancellor
1929 is here again ?
Haider!
Ghosts, long-stirring, now awake
Same well-trodden path to take
Image update, same lies, same refrain ?
Haider!

Where is your beauty, Austria?
Where is your culture, Austria?
Is this your future, Austria ?
A steel stilletto in the night and the crunch of a manicured fist?
Haider!

Sober, clean and smartly dressed
Business class is well impressed
Now he pulls the strings behind the scenes -
Haider!
We all know the things he said
We all know the book he read
We all know those sad old fascist dreams ?
Haider!

Where is your beauty, Austria?
Where is your culture, Austria?
Is this your future, Austria?
Death and dumplings, pearls and pogroms,
Hate in the shopping mall -
Haider!

Inspired by love, I wandered round Vienna
Where once my love made music of her own
I marvelled at the music that was born there
But that great city has a heart of stone..
Haider!

Second coming of the beast, blessed by banker, boss and priest
Slay the beast or bow your heads in shame ?
Haider!
Young and old, Austrians all, hear your history's baleful call
Hear the butchered millions scream his name ?
Haider!

Where is your beauty, Austria?
Where is your culture, Austria?
Is this your future, Austria?
For, mark our words, the bastard will not pass....
Smash Haider
Or hell in Austria!
