Born in the E.U. is the third track on Rome’s 2021 album Parlez-Vous Hate?
Born in the E.U. is a parody of Bruce Springsteen’s, Born in the U.S.A.. It features a similar drumbeat, cadence, and mock enthusiasm.
Springsteen’s song criticizes the state of American society, and in the same way Reuter...
[Verse 1]
Is it every nation for itself as we're plucking our feathers
To be so naked for Moloch and dancing all in tatters
Should the gods of war cast a brightening glance
So that we may know the dance is from the dancing
[Verse 2]
Some are piling up the barricades or sharpening the cross
But whichever way the wind will turn, it'll be our loss
Now I got twenty-seven brothers who never felt so alone
Who would cross over tomorrow, truth be told
[Chorus]
I was born in the E.U
I was born in the E.U
I was born in the E.U
I was born in the E.U
[Verse 3]
You know you lost that gamble when you're lesser than a fuhrer
All these dreams disassembled and just pumped into the sewer
Someone call a handyman, someone call a truce
So that we may know the hangman from the noose
[Chorus]
I was born in the E.U
I was born in the E.U
I was born in the E.U
I was born in the E.U
I was born in the E.U
I was born in the E.U
I was born in the E.U
I was born in the E.U
[Verse 4]
Some are piling up the barricades or sharpening a cross
But whatever the treaties say, it will be our last
[Verse 5]
Now I got twenty-seven brothers who've never felt that alone
Who would turn back time, truth be told
And some are piling up the barricades or sharpening a cross
But as you and me know, it will be our last
[Chorus]
I was born in the E.U
I was born in the E.U
I was born in the E.U
I was born in the E.U
I was born in the E.U
I was born in the E.U
I was born in the E.U
I was born in the E.U
[Outro]
I was born in the E.U
