Fight Back 03:32
lyrics
buy track
FIGHT BACK Fight back the dogs of depression Barking to freeze you Keep you down fastened and tight Fight back the prophets of violence Sleep with their shotguns Shoot you and laugh as you die Fight back! When the pressure drops on you When there‘s nothing left you‘d do When they beat you black and blue When they lie to you When you‘re drowning in your tears When you just can‘t hide your tears When the future disappears When the end ist near Fight back!

BITS & BYTES Who do you follow? Who do you like? What‘s your highscore? Playing counterstrike Bits & bytes are playing Ping-pong in your head Everybody‘s telling me I‘m going mad Bits & bytes are playing Ping-pong in my head Just sit here and waiting on Daddy‘s cheque Need no girlfriend Ned no blue sky Feeling gorgeous Just the screen and I Bits & bytes are playing Ping-pong in your head Everybody‘s telling me I‘m going mad Bits & bytes are playing Ping-pong in my head Just sit here and waiting on Daddy‘s cheque

BREXIT CIVIL WAR Boris comes marching home again Hurrah, bizarre! He‘s coming upon a bus or train, hurrah! Angela Merkel will shed a tear To see our faces so beaten in fear Just around the corner Brexit Civil War With all the stages of knives and twists When the lies that come cause brexit fits We watch the help on our TV screen The quitters eyes cause all to scream Just around the corner Brexit Civil War Boris is ranting on again How could this happen again If the kids are alright Maybe we can sleep at night Just around the corner Just around the corner Just around the corner Brexit Civil War

New Messiah 03:29

NEW MESSIAH Can you smell the rain? Can you touch the pain? Can you hear the flowers grow? Do you know what you really know? Can you touch the sun? Do you know there‘s one? Is it near or is it far? Are you sure who you really are? I‘m the New Messiah Healer of the world I set this land on fire I got the word, I have the sword I got the sword, I have the word Can you feel the pain? What about the rain? Can you hear the trees grow? Do you really know what they know? Can you touch my soul? Do you know it‘s hole? Is it near or is it far? Are you sure who you really are?

We Need 02:18
lyrics

WE NEED We need to stop the madness We need to think some more We need to heal the cancer That‘s knocking at your door We need to think creatively with intelligence We need to see the future With heavy evidence We need to base opinions On reasoning and proof And not on propaganda That tries to hide the truth We need our politicians to open our minds Reject ridged thinking Forget the party line The lying and cheating From politics and press With Trump and Putin Gets profit from the mess So put it to the people Let them work it out Provide impact statements And leave them in no doubt That‘s what we need!

Song For Manne 03:31
lyrics

Song For Manne We were buddies since 1979 Sticked together wasting so much time We made our world with your drums and guitars And got drunk in our favourite rock‘n‘roll bar Then after all these years you suddenly disappeared Without a word, without a sound You simply dropped down dead, lying in your bed Why did you go where are you now? So now you‘re gone and you left us all alone We sat there paralyzed, could‘nt carry on But we went stronger than we‘ve ever been Wherever you‘re now, wish that you could see If you can hear us wherever you might be Give us a smile that everyone can see You‘re in our hearts, you‘re in our brains We don‘t forget you until we meet again Then after all these years you suddenly disappeared Without a word, without a sound You simply dropped down dead, lying in your bed Why did you go where are you now? Why did you go where are you now?

Don't Talk To Me 03:43
lyrics

DON‘T TALK TO ME Sitting in a boring bar I wish I wasn‘t here Stupid faces all around me Warm and watery beer Empty conversations Combined with childish jokes Useless, mindless, brainless, helpless people Just go! And suddenly, my temperature explodes Climb a table, put up my hand, Let everybody know: I don‘t know the way you‘re laughing I don‘t know the way you smile I don‘t know the way You‘re thinking about it Just for a fucking while You‘re a miserable intention Of a woman or a man Please forgwet you know me Please forget my name And I don‘t even wanna know your name So don‘t don‘t don‘t Don‘t talk to me no more No more!

The Pied Piper 02:53

THE PIED PIPER Shadows from the past Creep all over this land Hiding everywhere To take you by the hand They want to take you back To a time that‘s dead and gone You better not listen to their songs Yeah, watch out, you better beware! Yeah, watch out, you better take care! Yeah, watch out! Don‘t listen to that sound For the Pied Piper‘s back in town They are building fences Let nobody in Afraid of foreign people And the colour of their skin They want you to march with them Waving their silly flags They wil never get us We‘ll never going back

Drowning In The Sea 03:20
lyrics
buy track
DROWNING IN THE SEA We grab your gold and silver Instead I‘ve given you guns We‘re stealing all your harvest To make our engines run We gave you independence But you will never be free And everyday, we‘re wondering why People are drowning in the sea Exploited landscapes, exploited souls Divided by the border line You can have it all Except the precious things Don‘t touch my claim because it‘s all mine We grab your gold and silver Instead I‘ve given you guns We‘re stealing all your harvest To make our engines run We gave you independence But you will never be free And everyday, we‘re wondering why People are drowning in the sea

Demons & Dungeons 03:22
lyrics

DEMONS & DUNGEONS Walking a deserted street In the middle of the night Fog is crawling on the ground Silver moon shines bright I look around, it scares me to death A swamp is on the left of me A graveyard to the right A hairy beast creeping out of the swamp I guess, now I‘m dead But then I wake up and realize It‘s all inside my head, just inside my head Sitting in the darkness It‘s cold and all alone Surrounded by a wall Made of mouldy stones I look around, it scares me to death Big hands push me outside To the market square The hangman‘s there waiting for me Put the rope around my neck But then I wake up and realize It‘s all inside my head, just inside my head I lie awake, the sheets are wet And I swear to myself Never watch horror movies again Before I go to bed, before I go to bed

GB Sticker 03:09

GB STICKER Went to the England with a girlfriend And an Xmas presents and money to spend Met some friends and had some fun Lots of snow but not much sun Back to the ferry in the early morn Gave us a sticker to the car to adorn Two weeks early in the early sun Traffic jams have just begun Saturday morning and Dortmund will play Drunken fans, there‘s trouble today Police have very much to do Keeping order for me and you, for me and you But there‘s always one that‘s bored Saw our car and knew, he‘d scored Pull over side, what‘s on this crack Let‘s have a look what‘s on your back Could‘t believe what he saw Oh but Ma‘am, that‘s against the law I know what I have to do Sorry I am fining you That‘ll be ten for the sticker Sorry the sticker we‘ll seize Walked away with a smile so bright Oh my god can this be right, can this be right? Fourty years have passed and I Think about it with a sigh Britain lost, the quitters won Working class still reads the SUN Still a sticker on my car, A blue one with a lot of stars Really love red, white and blue But Europe is for me and you, for me and you
