Testo:
Song Title: "Folklore"
Group: Husker Du
Written by: Bob Mould
Album: "New Day Rising"
Year: 1982
Women sewed the stars and stripes
And the men they fought the wars
Children learned arithmetic
And everyone was poor
Young man was the hero of the day
Long, long hours and short, short pay
Something I learned in a history book
Something I learned in a history book
It's not what they told you!
Folklore, folklore, folklore
Your mama never told you
Now the women scream for equal rights
Their man wants to have an affair
Children learn to hate the world
And no one seems to care
Now the kids play vids instead
Their heroes are living on Wonder Bread
Folklore, folklore, folklore
Your mama never told you
Some things never change
Some things stay the same
Some things rearranged
One thing I know for sure
Your heroes always DIE
