BRAVE COPS OF
ICELAND/BRAVES FLICS D'ISLANDE
Music by H. van
Loenhout, lyrics by Van Loenhout & Dijkstra.
I sing this song
for Oli, my dear Icelandic friend
And for all the
people that like him do care about this land
I sing a song
about courage, about stand up for your rights
And I address the
misled souls who see this as their fight
The world
reproaches the Arabs that they lack democracy
Oppressed by
wealthy families, watch your step or flee
Bananarepublic
Iceland is governed the same way
No less than a
police state in a fifties radio play
Chorus:
Brave cops of
Iceland
And your kinfolk
court of law
It's hard not to
be partial
At least that's
what I saw
Brave cops of
Iceland
Slaves of the
Nouveaux Riches
Squandering your
homeland
Don't you feel
ill at ease
Who taught you
these tactics trying to criminalize
the righteous but
spare the criminals while the media lobby lies
Soon enough you
will bow your head in shame, you went too far
Threatening to
kill nature lovers with your 4WD's
I am a fucking
foreigner, you say it is our fault
That Iceland
finally woke up after what it had been told
But that paranoid
explanation to believe is hard
Because Saving
Iceland was born in your backyard
Chorus: Brave
cops of Iceland (etc.)
Is it beyond your
imagination that some kids care more than you
For a land where
they're not native, but who are doing what you should do
Some more respect
from your side is the least that you could show
You should be
grateful for support, how could you sink so low
But I know you
can't speak out, you have to care about your career
Well, we will do
your job instead so that you can keep clear
Venting your
earnest worries has never been a crime
What about
democratic rights, we might be just in time
Chorus: Brave
cops of Iceland
And your kinfolk court of law
I think your days are numbered
Riding your see saw
Braves flics d'Islande
Esclaves des Nouveaux Riches
Ce que je vous demande
Ouvrez les yeux mes biches
Brave cops of Iceland
You had better change sides
If you want to save your country
That would be very wise
Brave cops of Iceland
I wish you all the best
A forward looking attitude
And I think you need a rest
