Als Frau deutlicher Worte ist P!INK nicht erst seit ihrem Dear Mr. President in 2006 bekannt. Nun hat sie einen neuen Song veröffentlicht, in dem sie klar Stellung zum Abtreibungsrecht in den USA und dem gesellschaftlichen Klima bezieht.
Und wer es schriftlich braucht, der kriegt es von ihr via Twitter:
„Let’s be clear: if you believe the government belongs in a woman’s uterus, a gay person’s business or marriage, or that racism is okay – THEN PLEASE IN THE NAME OF YOUR LORD NEVER FUCKING LISTEN TO MY MUSIC AGAIN. AND ALSO FUCK RIGHT OFF. We good?“
Hier der Text zu dem Lied:
I think it might rain today
Ash on the ground
Took all the heat we could take
And then burnt it down
Now it’s a real parade
We’re all welcome now
As long as you feel afraid
That’s what’s it about
You can call me irrelevant, insignificant
You can try to make me small
I’ll be your heretic, you fucking hypocrite
I won’t think of you at all
Sticks and stones and all that shit
Does Jesus love the ignorant?
I like to think he’d gladly take us all
The kids are not alright
None of us are right
I’m tired but I won’t sleep tonight
‘Cause I still feel alive
I can’t tell the difference
Between fight or flight
I guess I’m indifferent
Since I don’t have the right
I stay under covers now
I’m afraid to go out
I’ll wait for tornados
To come take me out
You can say that I’m ignorant, insignificant
But I’ve been here all along
I’ll be your heretic
You fucking hypocrite
You can’t ever catch us all
Sticks and stones and all that shit
Does Jesus know I’m innocent?
I’d like to think he’d gladly take us all
Girls just want to have rights
Why do we still have to fight?
