Il primo album in cui il brano appare è “Blind Gary Davis - Harlem Street Singer” della Fantasy Records risalente al 1960.
Durden ci racconta che dopo il nobel per la pace di cui è stato ingiustamente insignito il re dei guerrafondai, il “Chief-Butcher-in-command” Obama (che oltre ad inviare altri 30.000 soldati in Afghanistan, sta pure per avviare un nuovo fronte di guerra nello Yemen dopo il fallito attentato al volo Delta Amsterdam-Detroit), il Time ha assegnato il titolo di uomo dell’anno a Ben Bernanke, il capo della Federal Reserve, colui grazie al quale le banche e i mostri finanziari, dopo l’immensa abbuffata ai danni dei cittadini statunitensi e dell’umanità perpetrata negli ultimi anni, hanno ricevuto piena assistenza, molto “bicarbonato” ed ora hanno ben digerito, ben ruttato, ben cagato e sono pronti a nuove rapine in grande stile. E questo mentre molte delle loro vittime, a milioni senza casa e senza lavoro, stanno trascorrendo l'inverno nelle tende cibandosi delle razioni dell’assistenza federale…
Vogelmann invece descrive quanto accaduto il 27 dicembre sull’Eurostar Bari-Roma.
Quel giorno uno dei suoi compagni di viaggio era un ragazzo focomelico, senza braccia, “con due moncherini fatti di tre dita che spuntano dalle spalle”… Era salito – racconta Vogelmann – da solo, con il suo bagaglio, con grande fatica… Non aveva fatto a tempo a fare il biglietto e, solo per questo, è stato vessato e maltrattato prima da una giovane e insensibile controllora, poi da un giovane e stupido/cinico capo-treno (che ha chiesto ad un ragazzo senza braccia perché non si fosse servito delle macchinette automatiche per farsi il biglietto!) e quindi da due poliziotti della ferroviaria… Nemmeno l’intervento di Vogelmann (a sua volta maltrattato e dal personale e dai poliziotti) ha impedito che il passeggero disabile fosse costretto a scendere dal treno…
Questo che celebra i carnefici e i potenti e dimentica ed annichilisce le vittime ed i deboli è un mondo di morte senza pietà in cui mi fa male vivere…
