momus - rootless cosmopolitans كلمات الأغنية

Loading...

rootless cosmopolitans the hubris makes you hoot
you watch us travel round the world
and even follow suit
but times have changed, and mother
standing at the garden gate
calls us home for dinner
with the nation state

we dreamed we could live anywhere
and some actually did
taking flats in paris, brussels and madrid
learning other languages, with other points of view
it became, back in the 90s, something anyone could do

we took it all for granted, that expansion of the cage
global, multicultural, the catchwords of the age
but, scapegoated by populists, our freedoms go to h-ll
because if we can do it, so can immigrants as well

we dreamed we could live anywhere
and started moving in
to beautiful apartments in lisbon and berlin
with other cosmopolitans with other points of view
showing local people that was something you could do

rootless cosmopolitans, it’s so great to be free
you listened to the travellers’ tales
and started to agree
but hubris requires nemesis, the guardians of the gate
call us in to dine again with the nation state

rootless cosmopolitans, pretension makes you hoot
at elitists and precarians under your jackboot
but scapegoated by populists the whole thing flew to h-ll
because if we can do it, so can immigrants as well
