This song is a response to Tomorrow Belongs To Me, originally from the musical Cabaret (where it appears as a villain song; the audience isn’t supposed to sympathise), later covered unironically by the white supremacist band Skrewdriver.
John Kander (Ft. Robert Sharp) - Tomorrow Belongs to Me
—
Ge...
Your kingdom is of emptiness
Invisible empire of illusion
There's no majesty in your empty words
Your ideology - self delusion
Revisionism is the future
So let's hail the same old dawn
Kneel before the same old order
You're no kings - only pawns
You're waiting for tomorrow, well tomorrow never comes
Ha, you're waiting for your new dawn, so sad to say there isn't one
Because, tomorrow belongs to nobody
Tomorrow - belongs to nobody
You're waiting for tomorrow, well tomorrow never comes
Ha, you're waiting for your new dawn, so sad to say there isn't one
You fools tomorrow belongs to nobody
Tomorrow - belongs to nobody
Carcass released Tomorrow Belongs to Nobody on Mon Jun 10 1996.
