| Motörhead – Burner Lyrics | 1 year ago |

@ssirrah1 Spot on! And let me expand upon this kind sir! "the operatives who attended to the crematorium, sometimes where called burners". P.178, The shortest History of Germany James Hawes. Hawes is referring to Aktion T4/ the mass murder of (alleged) 'life unworthy of life'; this was the model of mass murder that became the gas chambers of the Holocaust. "Throw me to the lions". A wider and more general reference the Christians vs lion entertain (myth of otherwise), and the Crusade of Richard the Lion Heart? This both opens and continues the theme of oppressive, destructive political force, to a wider European historic perspective. "Burn 'er anyway", can only but evoke the Witch Trails of Europe. MH's usual trademark bucolic and pastoral imagery, set to a pleasant rhythmic trot through leafy glades. :) |

| @[LadyMage:40749] I kinda support your response to the lyrics as a valuable reading of the lyrics. Can\'t go with such statements as \'the right reading\'. There are other clues to flesh out the meaning(s) of Das Atle Leid; the fact the lyrics are written in French, yet sung in German, and the song is in the style of T-Rex (which) links with the sound dub of child\'s cry. | |

| @[6linde6mann6:40745] respectfully, and with LIFAD, I don\'t agree that Rock Hawk has "given the right meaning of this song", as if implying other reading are incorrect. Other reading such as LadyMage are relevant, and valuable as a interpretation / reading. of the lyrics. There are other clues to flesh out the meaning(s) of Das Atle Leid; the fact the lyrics are written in French, yet sung in German, the song is in the style of T-Rex. | |
