Couldn’t Happen Here

Got a finger on our pulses 
Got our knackers in a vice 
Got a jackboot on our windpipes 
In case you have to tell us twice

We watched your credibilty  
Slowly disappear 
Now we see you promising  
It definitely couldn’t happen here

With shortages of carrots
 All you’ve got’s the stick 
You can beat them to submission 
That’s Realpolitik

The writing’s on the wall 
But there’s no need to fear
 As we spiral to destruction 
You’re pretty sure it couldn’t happen here

Got our hands over our ears
 Got a clothes peg on our nose 
We could see where this was heading 
Through eyes tightly closed

A radioactive wasteland 
Makes quite a souvenir 
But it’s not much consolation
 For what you figured couldn’t happen here
