Die Antwoord - Enter The Ninja
I can't actually tell you why I am addicted to this song. It isn’t my sort of music, but there is something addictive about it. Richard Kingsmill from Triple J posted it to his twitter feed with a cryptic comment when he heard they were coming to Australia (before it was announced, hence the cryptic comment). I clicked the link and fell down the rabbit hole. It is worth having a look at their website (click on the About link). It is very untraditional, nearly a storyboard, showing the personality of the band in a way that is loud and clear.

John Lennon - Working Class Hero
As soon as you're born they make you feel small
By giving you no time instead of it all
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
They hurt you at home and they hit you at school
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years
Then they expect you to pick a career
When you can't really function you're so full of fear
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV
And you think you're so clever and class less and free
But you're still fucking peasants as far as I can see
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
There's room at the top they are telling you still
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill
If you want to be like the folks on the hill
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
If you want to be a hero well just follow me
If you want to be a hero well just follow me
