Lyrics

Banemannen

Ensam är stark

När man rör sig i ett ensamt ljus

Så manifesteras

Banemannens stimulus

Ung mot gammal, vad gör det?

Programmerad dödlighet

När modern får nog

Tar fadern fram en säker plan

Han slipar kniven

Och vinkar till sig sina barn

Ack, så skört ett liv kan vara

Kärlek ger när döden tar

Sagan slutar aldrig där

Nej, å nej, å nej

En dold agenda

Syns klart i folkets ledare

En redan skev åsikt

Blev så ännu snedare

Stark mot svag mot invalid

Sekulär mot fascistoid

Det vackra folket

Glimrar och ler från sina berg

I en rännstens dy

Holkar hungern ut kropp och märg

Barrikader av rik hypnos

Slår ihjäl varann förstås
