An election poster torn on the wet grass They grin at me, the old watered-down phrases The faces of old men made to look youthful Who praise you the Middle Ages as progress And I think to myself, every step towards the promised happiness Is a step after forever yesterday, a step back How they exhort the people to prudence and sacrifice They call it the people but they mean subjects All the glue, all the sliming is no longer bearable When you first learn to translate what they really say The minister whispered and took the bishop by the arm: You keep them stupid, I'll keep them poor!

Be aware Memorize the words! Be aware And don't fall for them! Be careful that you use your freedom Freedom wears out if you don't use it! Be aware Note the faces well! Be aware keep your courage Be aware And be on your guard!

You turn on the TV, they whine about good old values Your good, old values ​​are almost always the wrong ones And those who are kicking around so loudly in the talk round Are they the ones who trample on all values: The media mogul and the newspaper czar The worst goats as gardeners, wonderful! They call for the crucifix, for customs and good manners, But her message is nothing but ass and tits. Brutalization, stultification, violence are the commandments, Their gods are edition and unit quota. They bend the truth and twist the law: So much good old values, really, it makes me really sick!

It's a huge boom for pied pipers For free riders and bribe recipients, a time for self-service and profiteers, Hypocrisy, hypocrisy and job haggling. And they are all respected and greatly appreciated, And after the worst places and airfields are named. You catch the chicken thief, you let the gun smuggler go, Not a little weed, but you can buy a whole poison gas factory. Contaminate the air, spoil the land, do the greatest damage with impunity, Just don't get caught with sit-ins! You grab the Grünfried, but the environmental pig enjoys trust. And the police always have to hit the wrong people.

We have a basic law that should guarantee the rule of law. What good does it do if you manipulate it as you please, The agitators who always babble about the peacekeeping mission And already busy rattling your saber under the table? The old shine in her eyes at the big tattoo, Department returns, marching in step, a song and home to the kingdom! "Never again shall there be a war in this country!" "We have to show the flag, we can't stand aside!" "Purely humanitarian, of course, and without any bloodshed!" "Combat missions can no longer be completely ruled out. They pull us in deeper and deeper, bit by bit. And since this morning we've been shooting back.

I long for people who don't cheat on me Who don't lie to me with every celebratory speech, And spare me the false honest ones The false honest ones, the real dangerous ones! I long for a piece of truthfulness, After a bit of backbone in this crooked time. But tell the truth and soon you'll have nothing left to laugh about They will ruin you, execute you and silence you, Blackmail, bribe, try to buy you. If you're telling the truth, keep the engine running outside Then say it loud and fast, because the proverb teaches Whoever tells the truth needs a damn fast horse!
