De Heideroosjes - Radical Fortune songtekst
Je score:
Far before you were born, your daddy already yelled the same words When your granddad burned his ideals to the ground Your mammy screamed: “I'm not raising children in this society†Luckily your dad knew to impede that Daddy, he was radical, fought against the system Now he has his own house and a car with no-claim Mammy was a hippy, she wore flowers in her hair Now she's in the rotary, eating caviar(*1) Upon the barricade, he and all the others They screamed louder than each other, the world needed to change Give us authority and everything shall be better! And indeed, right now it's still shit He says: “You must study, you'll get a great job then†He says: “A suit with a tie wouldn't be misplaced†But I say: “Here me out daddy, there more than just money A suit with fake smile, I cut right through that†And even your granddad didn't want to be like his dad But a couple of years later he sat on the lawn with his six children Grandma yelled: “Equal rights for Dutch women!†But then married a guy who couldn't keep his hands home Maybe I'll be raising children in this fucked up society And I will take my own little garden for on Saturdays Maybe I'll take a job from 8 till 5 Or I'll become a topdog at a stupid fucking company
