lyrics

We built our house on rock to keep it safe from wind,
To be a sturdy shelter when thunders punish sinned.
Those days are cold and cruel, we read the daily news.
Thank god occurring far away, so no one to accuse.

The moon lights us our way to get paid out of debt,
To make our contribution by our own blood and sweat.
The other doesn’t count, the other doesn’t pay.
No taxman looking after us but taking our payday.

Why should we care? – Why should we dare?
To make this world a better place when this is it for us?
Why more of work? – Why more of drudge?
Why should we sacrifice our time when nothing’s … left for us.

No, we won’t change our mind, we are no system slaves.
No, we don’t play the fools for them, let us be in our caves.

Why should we care? – Why should we dare?
To get hurt for some others fault with no hand saving us?
Why us of all? – Why should we bear?
We don’t give a shit as long as there’s no better place … for us.
