Propagandhi - America's Army (Die Jugend Marschiert) lyrics

" Die Jugend marschiert mit frohem Gesang
Bei Sonnenschein und Regen
Die Jugend marschiert mit sieghaftem Drang
Dem großen Ziel entgegen
Wir stürmen die Welt
Geh'n fest unser'n Schritt
Wer jung ist der fügt sich freilich mit
Die Jugend marschiert, kein Pfad ist zu steil
Dem Siege entgegen zu eil'n sieg Heil! "

"Welcome to the offices of Economic
And Manpower Analyses here
At our historic and sprawling
West Point Academy campus!
My name is Mindy! And it's my distinct
Pleasure to introduce you to a father
A loving father of three
(and a champion of the sanctioned use of
Armed force in pursuit of policy objectives)
Ladies and gentlemen
Put your hands together for the project
Director of our newest recruitment strategy
To staff future combat systems
Through current technologies
Without any further ado, I give to you
(Colonel Casey Wardynski) "

"Thank you! Let me begin with some
Sentimental appeals to our national myths
Assorted clichés coined by the state
The ideological shorthand meant to
Sweep your private
Doubts away of this virtual training course
This portal this Trojan Horse you
Living idiots paid for
And you actually rolled into
Your own kids' rooms"

"Did I just say that out loud? Well
It's not like it's something new
It's just the logical extension of
The decades of bilge water
That you have let us pump into your homes
The pink noise that hums away
In the background while
You run the gauntlet we force on you everyday
The billowing candy floss that helps
To soften the blows
Deep down you've always known your
Children already belong to us
So why don't you cut
The outraged parent routine
Shut your mouth and get back in your seat

Your children already belong to us what
Are you? You will pass on
And they won't know a fucking
Thing but this 'community
' this real life Ender's Game
Forget what you think you know"
