The lyrics refer to the poem „Die Grippe und die Menschen“ (The Influenza and the People), published in March 1920 by the Swiss satire magazine „Nebelspalter“ (Fog Splitter) still under shock of the carnage produced by the Spanish Flu. The poem reflects on the difficulties lots of people have with uncertain circumstances. It shows how problematic it can be when people keep on denying the impact of the pandemic.
ALLIGATOR GOZAIMASU is a fluid being. Our collective consists of many different voices. We are open for constructive discussions and criticism. However, we do not accept positions that deny the impact of the pandemic. There are many people out there who belong to risk groups and who keep on suffering from long Covid syndromes. One of our fellow musicians lost his life because of the virus. We feel connected with him and everybody else who is struggeling and helping out there.
