Brian Setzer ~ Barbwire Fence


They took the coal from the mountains, ripped the fruit from the soil Pulled the fish from the sea, drained the earth of its oil Took the Christ out of Christmas, pulled the sun from the sky Their daddies told them to never ask why The barbwire fence is gettin' higher and higher We're gettin' ready to fight fire with fire It's gettin' so there ain't a kind word said But we gotta keep movin' on, pushin' on ahead They led a blind man to a cliff, gave a crippled man a kick Took a poor man to the cleaners and a rich man has his pick Gave a three piece man a job, took an old man to a whore Sent a young boy to a place he ain't never been before The barbwire fence is gettin' higher and higher We're gettin' ready to fight fire with fire It's gettin' so there ain't a kind word said But we gotta keep movin' on, pushin' on ahead Well if they force me to reason, if they ask me to doubt I'll fuss then baby and fight 'em baby, ow East wind is blowin' and a full moon is high There's just no purpose, there's no reason why The barbwire fence is gettin' higher and higher We're gettin' ready to fight fire with fire It's gettin' so there ain't a kind word said But we gotta keep movin' on, pushin' on ahead more free lyrics

They took the coal from the mountains, ripped the fruit from the soil
Pulled the fish from the sea, drained the earth of its oil
Took the Christ out of Christmas, pulled the sun from the sky
Their daddies told them to never ask why

The barbwire fence is gettin' higher and higher
We're gettin' ready to fight fire with fire
It's gettin' so there ain't a kind word said
But we gotta keep movin' on, pushin' on ahead

They led a blind man to a cliff, gave a crippled man a kick
Took a poor man to the cleaners and a rich man has his pick
Gave a three piece man a job, took an old man to a whore
Sent a young boy to a place he ain't never been before

The barbwire fence is gettin' higher and higher
We're gettin' ready to fight fire with fire
It's gettin' so there ain't a kind word said
But we gotta keep movin' on, pushin' on ahead

Well if they force me to reason, if they ask me to doubt
I'll fuss then baby and fight 'em baby, ow
East wind is blowin' and a full moon is high
There's just no purpose, there's no reason why

The barbwire fence is gettin' higher and higher
We're gettin' ready to fight fire with fire
It's gettin' so there ain't a kind word said
But we gotta keep movin' on, pushin' on ahead

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
