Dancing outside the concentration camp, rave music pounding through our bones like bombs. A disco at the genocide, baby. A disco at the genocide.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Dancing outside the concentration camp,
\nrave music pounding through our bones like bombs.
\nA disco at the genocide, baby.
\nA disco at the genocide.<\/p>\n

Twerking outside the open-air prison.
\nRaving while Gaza asphyxiates.
\nTwirling glow sticks while a Final Solution is planned.
\nJust an innocent bit of fun.<\/p>\n

Chill out and dance outside the concentration camp.
\nWhat could possibly go wrong?
\nWe\u2019ve got the IDF looking after us.
\nThey\u2019d never let anything bad happen.<\/p>\n

So dance while the Palestinians are squeezed to death.
\nDance while the polar ice caps melt.
\nDance while the oceans fill with plastic.
\nDance while the rainforests disappear.
\nDance while nuclear warheads are primed.
\nDance while mothers scream impossible screams.
\nDance while the arms industry reaps record profits.
\nDance while fathers pick up pieces of their kids.
\nDance while AI helps exterminate families.
\nDance while Gazans dehydrate under rubble.
\nDance while limbs are amputated without anaesthesia.
\nDance while death machines patrol the sky.
\nDance while the news man fills our heads with lies.
\nDance while the podium man denies everything he sees.
\nDance while the sharptooth manipulators scheme.
\nDance while our minds are turned into machines.
\nDance to the beat of imperial psytrance.
\nDance to the beat of the Pentagon Polka.
\nWhat could possibly go wrong?<\/p>\n

Dance outside the concentration camp.
\nA disco at the genocide, baby.
\nA disco at the genocide.<\/p>\n
