Womanly Hips - Politics [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Sick of politicians lying vilifying refugees
Solidifying power by creating common enemies
Propaganda pushing that these people are a threat to me
But luckily I don’t believe a fucking thing you’ve said to me
In The Australian or whatever newspaper that you read
Casually, blowing bloated boats to debris
That’s just murder
Doesn’t matter if it’s been approved by Murdoch
Subsequently their side to the story
Is all the people heard of
Shit ain't gonna change unless we make it happen
If we’re taking action through a protest or tasteful rapping
Might be wishful thinking but it could begin a chain reaction
Make sure that in three years we get a change of captain

Cause real talk, Tony Abbott can suck a dick. I hate that guy. Jesus
Fuck. Just let people gay people get married for fuck's sake, oh my god

They say they fight for peace, that’s obviously impossible
Killing people like they killed alternatives to fossil fuels
To fund it all they cutting funds from public schools and hospitals
Think that slavery ended? Well then they’ve got us fooled
The only difference between now and the eighteen hundreds
Is the fact that it’s the class not a race that’s going under
Why bother using whips and chains
When for a little bit of pay, people do shit the same
And don’t confuse money for freedom
We just waste it on a bunch of shit we don’t need and
What makes anyone living in a first world country
Have the right to buy three cars while other people are hungry?
If all people are equal, and I think we can agree
Going on a holiday overseas is just plain evil
Don’t get me wrong this applies to me as well
I just think it’s fucked up the way we see ourselves
