Switzerland - Keis Zweits Läbe

We are very proud to be able to represent Switzerland this year. Like everyone in the Schoolovision community, we were devastated by the terrible things happening to the people of Ukraine. Despite having had decided on a different topic previously, there was no way, we wouldn't write a song that expresses our emotions related to what's going on right now. So not only does the song describe our state of mind, we also reflected on our own habits of playing games in the horrible presence of the war. 

It should be mentioned that the learners built those instruments themselves and learned to play them. Apart from drum and bass, all instruments used in the recording are self-made. 

Translated lyrics: No second life War mongerers play around with the remote pressing buttons, zapping from program to program while snacking popcorn, watching explosions, people on the run, pale faces in the mud With their lies, they paint a better world but all they achieve is destruction and grief torn up families, hunger and fear each attempt to stop them hits a wall We are afraid ... This is our scream all that energy, yet powerless the blood is boiling, the mind is spinning aimlessly around this madness Build the weapons yourself organise a storm squad playing dead but carry on Play robber and police and aim at each other later a laser tag party or during paint ball smudging each other with paint During a computer game, collect weapons and let the blood splatter If it hits you, just start over In the real world it is the same but There is no second life This is our scream ...

We hope, that despite the serious topic, you will enjoy watching our clip.

The IWW Wetzikon wishes all participating schools lots of success with their project.
