letra de no more normal - killdren

[intro – arundhati roy sample]
what is this thing that has happened to us?… it’s definitely more than the virus… our minds are still reaching back and forth, longing for a return to normality (normality). trying to stitch our future to our past. and refusing to acknowledge the rupture. but the rupture exists. and in the midst of this terrible despair, it offers us a chance to rethink the doomsay machine we have built for ourselves. nothing could be worse than a return to normality. historically pandemics have forced humans to break with the past, and imagine their world anew. this onе is no different. it’s a portal, a gateway bеtween one world and the next…

[verse 1]
the sickness arrived long before the virus
an insane system with profits to inspire us
it’s dog eat dog, in a race to the top
chasing numbers or you’re in for the chop
to keep a roof overhead, you’re called a hero
but being paid in praise is close to getting zero
the top tier chase risk until it’s risky
then demand a bailout and sit back with a whisky

the cracks in the system have now been exposed
the path ahead lays open, where once it was closed
people were encouraged to prepare for the worst
but mutual aid was the rescue – putting people first!

[chorus]
no more, no more
no more – no more normal
no more, no more
no more – no more normal
no more, no more
no more – no more normal
no more, no more
no more – no more normal
no more, no more
no more – no more normal
no more, no more
no more – no more normal
no more, no more
no more – no more normal
no more, no more
no more – no more normal

[bridge – arundhati roy sample]
in the midst of this terrible despair, it offers us a chance to rethink the doomsday machine we have built for ourselves. nothing could be worse than a return to normality…

[verse 2]
it shouldn’t be normal for people to be sleeping on the street
or underpaying care workers, the ones who take the heat
it shouldn’t be normal for landlords to take the cream
you’re struggling to cough up cash, and they’re living the dream
why do they make cannon fodder of those in poverty?
and others h–rd wealth – our labour is the commodity
this mongrel nation wanted to tighten border control
but those people are saving our -rs-s and taking the toll

we have to see the positives, it’s not all doom and gloom
work together to break the code, we can mushroom
send our spores out into these new winds
the past mistakes and greeds, oh, we can rescind
[chorus]
no more, no more
no more – no more normal
no more, no more
no more – no more normal
no more, no more
no more – no more normal
no more, no more
no more – no more normal

no more, no more
no more – no more normal
no more, no more
no more – no more normal
no more, no more
no more – no more normal
no more, no more
no more – no more normal

[verse 3]
we need to make the first moves in this game
build our new world, not return to the same
look out for each other and don’t be a snitch
you’ll end up a tool for the state, instead be the glitch
we won’t wait for leadership we’ll organise local
we’ll take the reigns in our hands and make ourselves vocal
we were told that change was impossible
disguise the limits – now is anything possible!
[outro]
we gotta stop this f-cking bunch of c-nts – for the future!
