The New Colossus

Have you ever been so hungover
That you don't know whether you just woke from a coma?
But you're teetotal, you're totally sober
So it's got to be your body's bones that are broken
A global explosion, a tyrannical virus
Nearly as bad as writing in comic sans, and papyrus
Luckily there's something that we can prescribe
It's a man that'll fight to dismantle the Reich
Blond haired, blue eyed, but he doesn't subscribe
To the doctrine that it makes him higher than another guy
He doesn't like taking credit without merit
He's ready to demonstrate it to anyone that doesn't get it
He brought a big bad of bloody guns to the party
'Cause what's the point in just punching a Nazi
Never mind a sucker punch off someone you can't see
I'll bring a tank to the demolition derby
Leaving nothing but a bit of charred meat in the car seat
Can't be doing with that parlay malarkey
Says, "Shoot first, ask questions never,
To anyone claiming to be there best, I'm better"
Meet BJ Blazkowicz
A one man natural disaster risk
He's hurting to hurt and he'll scratch that itch
By tracking down a Nazi to blast to bits
No small print, caveats or asterisks
Won't bow to the master that cracks the whip
He'll be standing on the back of the basilisk
And hacking at its scalp with a bloodied battered fist
Takes pain like a masochist
But he'll never self inflict, never slash his wrist
The only manner in which he'll ever go down's
Whenever he throws down with the last Nazi bitch

The best you've got? your best won't do
Now you are the weak and this is your doom
You are among wolves now and these
Are our woods, our howls and our feast
There when the smoke clears and the flames
And all's laid to waste, one man remains
Frau can you feel it, can you see?
No army left, it's just you and me

Imagine being accused of a subhuman
Because you are another hue from the dude that is ruling
Imagine overnight losing all your loved ones
No goodbyes, no hugs, they're just gone
Imagine the sixties without love and peace
A big apple with jackboots out on the streets
Imagine America controlled by a despot
Turning everything he holds to a cesspit
Dead to the death's head moth the Totenkopf
We won't stop till it's totally broken off
Throw hands with the Oberkommando
Chuck a bone at the Panzerhund, hand over
Power to the people and allow them to be equal
Well at least till they announce another sequel
But for now we'll assist the resistance
In opposition to a system insisting we're ripped from existence
Frau Engel, a frown on her brow that'll make a man tremble
Break a man's mettle like the end of a pencil
Pressed on a page and proclaiming your death
You're witness to a harsh harsh mistress
But BJ'll get the last laugh yet, yes
Get the cat to chase the mouse, set the trap
Eradicate the Frau, where's the master race now
And what is a new Colossus
When they want to nuke the lot of us?
This is the start of an insurrection
Giving protection from unhinged infection
But we ditch the syringe and medicine
For a big metal thing that lead is in, so let us in
Most of us have never been beheaded
Let alone at the Lincoln thing and on the telly
'Tis but a scratch, an itch
Who dares to spill the blood of Blazkowicz
A last ditch attempt to tempt the fate and escape
But it's too late for that you Nazi bitch

The best you've got? your best won't do
Now you are the weak and this is your doom
You are among wolves now and these
Are our woods, our howls and our feast
There when the smoke clears and the flames
And all's laid to waste, one man remains
Frau can you feel it, can you see?
No army left, it's just you and me

The best you've got? your best won't do
Now you are the weak and this is your doom
You are among wolves now and these
Are our woods, our howls and our feast
There when the smoke clears and the flames
And all's laid to waste, one man remains
Frau can you feel it, can you see?
No army left, it's just you and me
