California Uber Alles -- Dead Kennedys


I am Governor Jerry Brown  My aura smiles  And never frowns
Soon I will be president  Carter power will soon go away  I will be Führer
one day  I will command all of you  Your kids will meditate in school 
California Über Alles  Über 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 white horse is near  The hippies won't come back you say
Mellow out or you will pay   California Über Alles
Über 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 
California Über Alles  Über Alles California                 (sing365)

The song focuses on Jerry Brown, the Governor of California 1975-1983 , and is sung from his perspective. An imaginary Brown outlines a hippie-fascist vision for America, in which his "suede denim secret police" kill un-cool people with "organic poison gas" chambers. Lines such as "Serpent's egg already hatched"  comment on the corrosive nature of power. The line "now it is 1984" refers to the totalitarian regime of George Orwell's novel, describing a future  where Jerry Brown has become President Brown presiding over secret police and gas chambers           (wikipedia)
