Came here to post this, as someone from the State of Mississippi. It really pisses people off, the few who've ever heard it. It doesn't get a lot of play.

Tom Waits performs a cover of Kurt Weill and Bertolt Brecht's What Keeps Mankind Alive? from the The Threepenny Opera.

quote:

You gentlemen who think you have a mission
To purge us of the seven deadly sins
Should first sort out the basic food position
Then start your preaching, that's where it begins

Your lot who preach restraint and watch your waist as well
Should learn for once, the way the world is run
However much you twist or whatever lies that you tell
Food is the first thing, morals follow on

So first make sure that those who are now starving
Get proper helpings when we all start carving
What keeps mankind alive? What keeps mankind alive?
The fact that millions are daily tortured
Stifled, punished, silenced and oppressed

Mankind can keep alive thanks to its brilliance
In keeping its humanity repressed
And for once you must try not to shrink the facts
Mankind is kept alive by bestial acts

And the original, sung here by Ernst Busch.
