PhrancAbout
When Phranc performed in punk clubs, she would often see people mindlessly wearing Nazi symbols on their clothes. As a Jewish lesbian, this highly disgusted her, so she wrote this song.
The fashions changed and the politics changed and people were wearing the swastika, which they hadn’t been up to...
Take Off Your Swastika Lyrics
[Chorus]
Take off your swastika
It's making me angry
Take off your swastika
It really nauseates me
You say, "Phranc, it's just a symbol"
"It's just an emblem"
"It's just a righteous decoration"
Well, it means a little more to me
[Post-Chorus]
'Cause fascism isn't anarchy
Fascism isn't anarchy
Fascism is not anarchy
[Verse]
Sure, I got Jewish damage
What the hell do you expect?
Thirteen years of Hebrew school
And all the slides that they project
Of all the burning bodies
Of all the concentration camps
All the concerts that I go to
And on many TV shows
I see little Hitlers
Everywhere I go
[Chorus]
Takе off your swastika
It's making me angry
Take off your swastika
It really nausеates me
You say, "Phranc, it's just a symbol"
"It's just an emblem"
"It's just a righteous decoration"
Well, it means a little more to me
'Cause I'm a Jewish lesbian, ya see?
[Post-Chorus]
You know fascism isn't anarchy
Fascism isn't anarchy
Fascism is not anarchy
[Outro]
And if it was you in those ovens
You wouldn't think it was so cool
You in those ovens
You wouldn't think it was so cool
If it was you in those ovens
You wouldn't think it was so goddamn cool
