Devil Town Lyrics

Life's alright in devil town
Yeah, right, no one's gonna catch us now
Dad has bought a new car now
We're fine, no one's gonna catch us now
You said something dumb again
She's mad, at least that's what they say
Mum and daddy aren't in...

    This wasn't originally my idea but I saw it in the comments of a YouTube video and found it really interesting.
    The person thought this song was about the Holocaust.
    "We're all in our dressing gowns. Mine's white and stripy, your's is green and brown."
    Prisoners(Jews) would wear striped "pajamas" and the Nazi's uniforms were green and brown.
    "We're all dead in Devil town. That's fine, no one's gonna scare us now."
    With this idea in mind, this line doesn't really need an explanation.
    "Hold my hand tight, we'll make it another night."
    Two people or a person being hopeful of survival.
    "I forgot my name again. . . "
    People were referred to by numbers, not by their names. That might lead to people forgetting their names.
    "How do you feel so proud?"
    This line could be referring to someone question how Hitler and the Nazis were so proud of what they accomplished.
