LE DIABLE EST PARMI NOUS
Quand on saura tout
on partira sans nous
là-bas au fond du trou
dans la terre et la boue
comme des riens du tout
nos vies pour pas un clou
Le vol des hirondelles
qui se déchirent les ailes
et se tordent le cou
Ton monde est bien trop fou
pour vivre parmi parmi nous
Le doux chant des sirènes
qui crient à perdre haleine
se noie dans les égouts
Tes bombes et tes bijoux
deviendront des cailloux
et nos corps en dessous
glisseront par petits bouts
Appuie sur la gâchette
qu'on finisse la fête
Le diable est parmi nous
Quand on saura tout
on partira sans nous
là-bas au fond du trou
dans la terre et la boue
comme des riens du tout
nos vies pour pas un clou
Le vol des hirondelles
qui se déchirent les ailes
et se tordent le cou
Ton monde est bien trop fou
pour vivre parmi parmi nous
Le doux chant des sirènes
qui crient à perdre haleine
se noie dans les égouts
Tes bombes et tes bijoux
deviendront des cailloux
et nos corps en dessous
glisseront par petits bouts
Appuie sur la gâchette
qu'on finisse la fête
Le diable est parmi nous
Wouter Beke, vleesgeworden incarnatie van een verliezende partij
als de vos de passie preekt, boer pas op je kiezende ganzen
de hypocrisie van de macht glinstert in ooghoeken van de harpei
de duisternis daalt weer neder, het klatergoud doet postjes glanzen
ter verdediging van gezinnen en voor het heil van de burgermaatschappij
al is het waarschijnlijk meer om partijgenoten te laten schranzen
van kreeft, kaviaar, truffels en overheerlijke foie gras of leverpastij
een partij die leeft in het verleden, gematigd en rancuneus als brandganzen
de partij van Arco, Dexia en het ACW, duivels winstbejag als coöperatieven
voorvechter van een moraal, u weet wel, die van het vingertje
ze leven in de onderbuik van Vlaanderen, ingebed als een kwaardig gezwel
ze claimen te leven bij de gratie Gods, voor hen immers geen beleidsalternatieven
onfeilbaar praktisch, vermoeden kunnen we enkel dat kostelijke missertje
van Leterme van 54 miljard of de bierbonus van Dehaene, 3miljoen als kerstmodel
When the Devil is too busy
And Death's a bit too much
They call on me by name you see,
For my special touch.
To the Gentlemen I'm Miss Fortune
To the Ladies I'm Sir Prize
But call me by any name
Any way it's all the same
I'm the fly in your soup
I'm the pebble in your shoe
I'm the demon in your bed
I'm a bump on every head
I'm the peel on which you slip
I'm a pin in every hip
I'm the thorn in your side
Makes you wriggle and writhe And it's so easy when you're evil
This is the life, you see
The Devil tips his hat to me
I do it all because I'm evil
And I do it all for free
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need
While there's children to make sad
While there's candy to be had
while there's pockets left to pick
While there's grannies left to trip down the stairs
I'll be there, I'll be waiting 'round the corner
It's a game. I'm glad I'm in it
'Cause there's one born every minute
And it's so easy when you're evil
This is the life, you see
The Devil tips his hat to me
I do it all because I'm evil
And I do it all for free
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need
I pledge my allegiance, to all things dark
And I promise on my damned soul
To do as I am told, Beelzebub
Has never seen a soldier quite like me
Not only does his job, but does it happily.
I'm the fear that keeps you awake
I'm the shadows on the wall
I'm the monsters they become
I'm the nightmare in your skull
I'm a dagger in your back
An extra turn upon the rack
I'm the quivering of your heart
A stabbing pain, a sudden start.
And it's so easy when you're evil
This is the life, you see
The Devil tips his hat to me
I do it all because I'm evil
And I do it all for free
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need
And I do it all for free
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need
And I do it all for free
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need
It gets so lonely being evil
What I'd do to see a smile
Even for a little while
And no one loves you when you're evil
I'm lying through my teeth!
Your tears are all the company I need
And Death's a bit too much
They call on me by name you see,
For my special touch.
