True stories.

lyrics

Punishing the Victims
he got laid off after 15 years
another job was hard to find
the government: too many on the dole
decrease the insurance, limit the time

chorus:
punish the victims - kick 'em when they're down
punish the victims - push 'em 'round
punish the victims - put 'em out on the street
punish the victims - make 'em bleed

she had trouble with her back from work
still she wouldn't get transferred
the government: too many sickt
tighten the benefit, legalise firing 'em

ch:

she got raped and called the cops
the perpetrators were brought in
the judge: the sentence: not guilty
she was drunk, dressed enticing

ch: x2

hello music lovers, it's führer friedrich reinfeldt. I'm pleased to tell you today I signed legislation that will outlaw the sick, disabled, unemployed, union activists, homosexuals, non western immigrants and every other form of cancer on our great nation, forever. let the extermination begin.
