"They want our way of life"
Well, they can take mine any time they like
'Cos god knows - I know I ain't living right:
I'm wrong
Oh, I know I'm so wrong
So like the Roman Empire fell away
Let me tell you; we are going the same way
Ah, behold the Decline and Fall
All hold hands with our backs to the wall
It's the end:
Why don't you admit it?
It's the same from Auschwitz to Ipswich
Evil comes
I know from not where
But if you take a look inside yourself -
maybe you'll find some in there
Not one single soul was saved
I was ordering an Indian takeaway
I was spared whilst others went to an early grave
Oh, got stoned
Yeah, went out and got stoned
Well if your ancestors could see you standing there
They would gaze in wonder at your Frigidaire
They had to fight just to survive
So can't you do something with your life?
It's the end:
Why don't you admit it?
It's the same from Auschwitz to Ipswich
Evil comes
I know from not where
But if you take a look inside yourself -
maybe you'll find some in there
Here it comes, why don't you embrace it?
You lack the guts needed to face it
Say goodbye to the way you've been living
You never realised you were on the wrong side
And nobody's going to win
"They want our way of life"
Well, they can take mine any time they like
Jarvis Branson Cocker (Sheffield, 19 gennaio 1963) è un cantautore, musicista e attore britannico. Noto soprattutto come frontman del gruppo rock alternativo Pulp, ha contribuito a definire il sound indie britannico degli anni '90 con testi ironici e introspettivi che esplorano temi sociali e personali. Cocker ha iniziato la sua carriera musicale negli anni '80 con diverse band locali prima di formare i Pulp nel 1978. Il gruppo ha raggiunto il successo internazionale con l'album *Different Class* (1995), considerato un classico del rock britannico moderno, contenente singoli come "Common People" e "Sorted for E's and Wizz". Cocker è stato anche apprezzato per i suoi album solisti, tra cui *Jarvis* (1998) e *Further Complications* (2006). Oltre alla musica, ha recitato in film e programmi televisivi, dimostrando un talento versatile che lo rende una figura iconica della cultura britannica contemporanea. Tra le sue canzoni più rappresentative: "Common People", "Disco 2000", "Babies", "This Is Hardcore" e "Running the World".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
