about

The second of 3 loosely connected songs about the conditions that lead to making facism seem rational - economic destitution and desperation in the Weimar Republic.

lyrics

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the wings of prostitution,
Welcome, baby, to your new constitution.

A gentleman does what a gentleman wants
And a gentleman wants in you.
A gentleman does what a gentleman should
And gentlemen are making the rules.

Welcome, children and saints, to a new kind of pollution.
Welcome, beggars, to your new contribution.

A gentleman takes what a gentleman wants
And a gentleman will rewrite the truth.
A gentleman takes what a gentleman will
And a gentleman is using you.

Uncover the truth of things in your own way,
Another trick to play today.
You do what they tell you and take off your clothes,
And leave on the light so everyone knows.

There's blood in the morning,
After the knives.
Another day and you're still alive.
Now there's a man on the corner and I don't like what he's for,
He's screaming we need another war.

I sit with the drinkers
And talk about the show.
