PAPAPORN ; PAPASTAR LYRICS

"A Message Of Hope To All My Slaves"

My slaves come in dozens
They’ve never really chosen
To serve the western vice
They’re still hoping to see loosen
Their wage comes in pennies
Their dreams are filled with genies
That turn dreadful to nice
And force me to fall on my knees

I know it sounds activist
But I’ll start raising my fist
To convince easy-borns
It’s time for lex talionis

And then my dear self-liars
My folks, my comrades in sin
Will see their egos grow thin
As their eyes reflect the bonfire
The stake erected for the oppressor

My slaves won’t bear much longer
Our insatiable hunger
Those we’re taking for forlorn are tomorrow’s warmongers
My slaves come from Papua
From tyranny replica
From some place poor enough to enable your TV’s plasma
The pyramid they sustain
The republic they maintain
Will see us pant and cough as they bequeath to us their burden

And when my dear self-liars
My folks, my comrades in sin
Will see their egos grow thin
As their eyes reflect the bonfire
The stake erected for the oppressor

That day, together we’ll welcome the end
(Together we'll welcome the end)
Of what we posthumously named
(Of what we post-humously named)
The Denizen Vain
(The most shallow and self-conceited)
Citizen Lame
Created back in Ancient Greece to vote and feast
While the half-caste and the outcast drag their carcass to work
Well, in the grown-up Nation-States
In these peaceful days
Our slaves are just a couple borders away
A revolution away
A revolution away
