DEAD KENNEDYS
- California Uber Alles Lyrics / with translationsI am Governor Jerry Brown
My aura smiles and never frowns
Soon I will be President
Carter power will soon go away
I will be fuhrer one day
I will command all of you
Your kids will meditate in school
Your kids will meditate in school
California Uber Alles
California Uber Alles
Uber Alles California
Uber Alles California
Zen fascists will control you 100% natural
You will jog for the master race
And always wear the happy face
Close your eyes, can't happen here
Big Bro' on the white horse is near
The hippies won't come back, you say
Mellow out or you will pay
Mellow out or you will pay
California Uber Alles
California Uber Alles
Uber Alles California
Uber Alles California
Now it is 1984
Knock, knock at your front door
It's the suede-denim secret police
They have come for your uncool niece
Come quietly to the camp
You'd look nice as a drawstring lamp
Don't you worry, it's only a shower
For your clothes, here's a pretty flower
Die on organic poison gas
Serpent's egg's already hatched
You will croak, you little clown
When you mess with President Brown
When you mess with President Brown

✔️
When we look deeper into its meaning, the Dead Kennedys' song 'California Uber Alles' ridicules the politicians through the imagination of a future, where the governor turns into a tyrant, who decides over the citizens' lives and makes them identical, using the 'master race' technique of ironic references to meditation and jogging. The lyrics, besides mocking the totalitarian regime, also denounce the silent acceptance of such authority and issue a warning about the possible consequences, using California as an example of a state that is under the complete control of a tyrant with the most advanced surveillance system. The lyrics refrain from inserting themselves directly into the social and political debate but instead express the mixed feeling of anger, angst, despair, and reflection. Moreover, the song highlights the essential interrelationship of political power and control, social manipulation, and the dystopian future. The lyrics bring out the themes of authoritarianism and control, that might be considered unsuitable for kids younger than 13. The allusions to 'fascists' and 'secret police' imply a certain degree of brutality and mature themes that require parental accompaniment.
