Текст песни Madeleine Peyroux - The Brand New Deal
Yes, it's fun when you're young beneath an innocent sun
And the unicorns play in the fields
And your daddy drives slow with his Cadillac soul
His big strong hands on the wheel
And life's a dream, a serene machine
That all seem to care how you feel
And then you grow up and it's never enough
And money is just something to steal
It's every man for himself, so grab the wealth
Feel the poor under your heel
It's a brand new deal (A brand new deal)
A brand new deal (A brand new deal)
And then you learn in school between the lies and the rules
Of fairy tales and the charades
They must think you're a fool, you know none of it's true
It's all a rigged game we play
And the banks are thieves with infinite greed
And power is the coin you feed
And when countries are done, it's just money and guns
And cocaine and hookers for days
It's every man for himself, so grab the wealth
Feel the poor under your heel
In the brand new deal (The brand new deal)
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
The brand new deal (The brand new deal)
Come on now (Come on, come on, come on, come on)
Come on now (Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You know the law is on sale when you're too big to fail
And every congressman comes with a price
And the streets are a jail for the weak and the frail
A predator's paradise
And we all know how the cold wind blows
And cuts like the blade of a knife
It's a zero-sum game you gotta learn to play
Learn how to load the dice
It's every man for himself, so grab the wealth
Feel the poor under your heel
In the brand new deal (The brand new deal)
The brand new deal (The brand new deal)
Yes, it's a (The brand new deal)
Commodification, consumerization (The brand new deal)
Deregulation, privatization (The brand new deal)
Objectification, sexualization (The brand new deal)
Rationalization, overcompensation (The brand new deal)
Disinformation, discrimination (The brand new deal)
Under-education, de facto segregation (The brand new deal)
Homogenization, criminalization (The brand new deal)
Desensitization, mass incarceration
