"Attak / Reload"

"Attak / Reload"



Watching you
Floodlights seal your fate
Shallow breath
Quick pulse
Navigate
All this waiting, waiting
Contemplating you

Pure adrenaline emergency
You've been searching for signs now the truth has arrived
State control
Attak/reload

Theoretical illusory
Volunteer to the ultimate system of life
Brace the blow
Attak/reload

Molecular breakdown mutate below
Cause and effect to react and explode
Static rush
Gravitational pull of delirium

Close my eyes
Hear what you say
Got the guns
The power to take
Bomb the one
The one that slipped away

Temper tantrum you communicate
It's your nature to be cold
Automatic how you operate
System failure
Brain control

Attak/reload

"Auf Wiederseh'n"

"Auf Wiederseh'n"



Alt und müde
Fett und kahl
Ausgesetzt im jammertal
Dumpf und trübe
Hohl und leer
Aus dir wird ganz bestimmt nicht mehr

Nimmermehr

Schwach und grau
Der blanke hohn
Scher dich fort
Du stinkst ja schon
Ab der lack
Aus der traum
Schall und rauch
Das nackte grauen

Aber ich
But I
Ich bleib nicht stehen
Will never stop
Es muss weitergehen
It must go on
Auf wiederseh'n!
Aber ich

But I
Ich bleib nicht stehen
Will never stop
Es muss weitergehen
Not for you
Auf wiederseh'n!

Die letzte fahrt für's alte wrack
Aus der traum und
Ab der lack
Schluss vorbei
Die luft ist raus,br. Spiel zu ende
Ofen aus

Dreckschleuder
Rattenfänger
Ausrangiert
Abgeschossen
Durchgeknallt
Abserviert
Umgestürzt
Eingesackt
Angeschmiert
Abgekackt
Abgekürzt
Abgefuckt
Und ausradiert

Ab der lack
Aus der traum
Schall und rauch
Das nackte grauen
Schluss vorbei
Die luft ist raus
Spiel zu ende
Ofen aus

Schatten deiner selbst
Lügenverschwörung
Gift und schnaps
Und selbst zerströrung
Ausradiert
Verlorene zeit
Folterqual in ewigkeit

"Ave Maria"

"Ave Maria"


ave maria
mother Mary shouting out her name
ave maria
bearing witness in the face of pain

honor slowly letting go
hearts thunder from the beating
standing alone

deus ex feces
build begotten holy mutant downfall of a species
morituri te salutant

show me something to believe in
tell me one truth i don't know
give me something to hold onto
point me somewhere i can go

ave maria
they're forgiving in the age of shame
ave maria
watching as we're buried in [?]

where angels fear to tread
bloody hands, foolish men
dare spite the dragon's head

deus ex feces
build begotten holy mutant downfall of a species
morituri te salutant

give me wisdom to live up to
tell me what i ought to know
reignite the fire inside me
be with me when i must go

ave maria
ave maria
ave maria
mother Mary shouting out her name
ave maria
bearing witness in the face of pain

"Bait & Switch"

"Bait & Switch"



Fea not what the future holds
Rest your weary soul
I'll do the rest
Careful as I gentle down
Like a sacred cow
Give you my best

Rest assured
I know you know
Truth is good
To win the goal
There comes a time
Fight or flight
All behold
The legacy mine

Hark the herald angels sing
Glory to the king of kings
A better life imagined through his eyes
A veil of finely calibrated lies

Bait and switch
One and all full of shit
Bait and switch
Everything in time

Follow me
Down the garden path
Take you by the hand
Lead you astray
Don't look back
Leave the past behind
Let bygones be gone
Live for today

In control
Make no mistake
The world is mine alone to take
All for one
One for none
In God we trust
To seal our fate

"Bargeld"

"Bargeld"


WAS WIRD WERDEN WENN KEINER MEHR SCHREIT
WIE WAREN DIE MANNER UND WO WAREN DIE NARREN
WER ZWEIFELT HIER AN SEINER ABKUNFT
WANN WERDEN WIR WOHL DIE RECHNUNG BEGLEICHEN

WO MAN VEREINT UND VERBRUDERT
SICH AUFSCHRECKT UND ABSCHRECKT
WO MAN EINTEILT UND AUSTEILT UND WAHRHEIT SCHANDET
UND DER LAHME DEM BLINDEN SEINEN KRUCKSTOCK SPENDET

WAS WIRD WERDEN WENN DU NICHT MEHR SCHLAFEN KANNST
MIT DER ANGST IM NACKEN WIRD KEINER MEHR FROH
DU GLAUBST ES NICHT, FUHLST ES NICHT,KOMMEN WIRD ES SOWIESO

IN EIN KAUGUMMI-PARADIES WANDER ICH AUS
DER PROPHET GILT NICHTS IM EIGENEN HAUS
WO ERST DAS BARGELD EURER MUTTERSPRACHE AUGEN OFFNET
DEUTSCH BIS IN DIE LETZTE KONSEQUENZ

ICH WERDE AUFSTEIGEN- AUFERSTEHEN
AUS DER ASCHE GEBOREN IN EIN NEUES LEBEN GEHEN

ICH WILL MEHR- IMMER MEHR
GENAU WIE DU
IIMMER MEHR

[Translation:]

HOW WILL IT BE WHEN NOONE SPEAKS UP ANYMORE
HOW WERE THE MEN AND WHERE WERE THE FOOLS
WHO HAS DOUBTS ABOUT THEIR DESCENT
WHEN WILL WE BE PAYING THE BILL

WHERE ALL, UNITED AND IN BROTHERHOOD
STARTLE AND SCARE EACH OTHER
WHERE ALL CLASSIFY AND DEAL OUT AND MUTILATE TRUTH
WHERE THE LAME DONATES HIS CRUTCH TO THE BLIND

HOW WILL IT BE WHEN YOU CAN'T SLEEP ANYMORE
WITH FEAR BREATHING DOWN YOUR NECK YOU WON'T BE CONTENT ANYMORE
YET, YOU DON'T BELIEVE IT, YOU DON'T FEEL IT COMING,BUT IT WILL ...

I EMIGRATE TO CHEWING-GUM-PARADISE
A PROHET IS NEVER KNOWN IN HIS OWN LAND
WHERE ONLY CASH OPENS YOUR MOTHERTONGUES EYES
GERMAN TO THE LAST CONSEQUENCE

I WILL ASCEND- RISE FROM THE DEAD
BORN FROM ASH INTO A NEW EXISTENCE

I WANT MORE-ALWAYS MORE
JUST LIKE YOU
ALWAYS MORE

"Beast"

"Beast"



MY YOUTH IS WASTED- I'M EVASIVE AND VAGUE
I'M A HEADLESS BEAST- I'M A SUBTLE PLAGUE

I'M A CHEATIN' LIAR- I AM NAKED TERROR
I HURT- I WOUND- I'M A FATAL ERROR

I'M A NON-BELIEVER- I REFUSE AND RESIST
I DON'T PLAY NO MORE- I'M A TERRORIST

I'M A RADICAL PIG- I EXPLOIT AND ABUSE
I AM TOTAL CHAOS- STRANGE AND ABSTRUSE

I DON'T MAKE SENSE
I GOT MY PRIDE
DON'T NEED NO MEANING
I FEEL NO SHAME
I WILL NOT BELIEVE
I GOT NO CHOICE
I'M OUT OF CONTROL
AND I LOVE IT

I'M A MAN WHO'S SICK- BUT I GOT CLASS
'COZ YOU ONLY GET RESPECT- WHEN YOU'RE KICKIN' ASS

NON-COMPLIANCE, NON-AGGRESSIVE, NON-CONTAGIOUS, NON-INVOLVEMENT
NON-PRODUCTIVE, NON-RELIGIOUS, NON-RESISTANT, NON-SUBJECTIVE

"Being Boiled"

"Being Boiled"


[The Human League cover]

Listen to the voice of buddha
Saying stop your sericulture
Little people like your offspring
Boiled alive for some god's stocking
Buddha's watching, buddha's waiting

Just because the kid's an orphan
Is no excuse for thoughtless slaying
Children don't forget this torture
Just because you call her mother
Doesn't mean that she's your better

Once more with the voice of buddha
He'll say carry on your slaughter
Who cares for the little children
You may slice with no conviction
Blind revenge on a blameless victim

"Bereit"

"Bereit"



Tragische Gedanken wie im Netz verfangen
Tauchen ihre Pranken in ein Kuhles Grab
Gespenstische Visionen haben leise Sohlen
Du fAllst aus allen Wolken wirst Dich nie erholen
Aus der Haut zu fahren aus dem Staub zu machen
Nicht mehr einzukriegen nichten der Mube wert
Verlassen unds die KrAfte wir brauchen neue SAfte
Verloren alle rechte am Bussen der Natur

Ich glaube night an dieses Gluck
An Bruderschaft
An die Verfolgung dieses Glucks

Gerechtigkeit entfache gib' uns eine Rache
Die da hilft der Sache sich auszubalancieren
Viele Augen weinen werden es bereuen
Sich zu fruh zu freuen Hoffnung wird zu Schreien

Oh Mutter Erde gib' einmal acht
Ich mach' Dir 'ne Freude hab' Dir was gebracht
Das Lied vom Betrugen das Lied von der Macht
Die Strophe wird enden es ist fast vollbracht
Wir drehen unds im Kreise im gleichen Takt
Schneller und schneller es ist fast ist fast vollbracht
Oh Mutter Erde horst du uns schreien
Wir sind Deine Kinder und haben es satt

Wir sind bereit...

"Bitches"

"Bitches"


All these years, all this time
We have been messing with your mind
Dishonest, noble, rad and true
We just don't have a fucking clue

All the humor, pun, and wit
A heaping, steaming pile of shit
With a smile and a wink
We make believe our poop don't stink

Rip the system, revolution
Adding fuel to your confusion
Gobble up the crap we feed you
We don't really love and need you

We just want your cold hard cash
Get our hands into your stash
Now show up, listen, and behold
Finally the truth be told

[Chorus:]
We're only in it for the money
To dip our fingers in your honey
We pretend to no end
We are bitches for your riches

My tide and my audacity
Of a handsome crook from Germany
A million sheets of patient paper
Chronicle his every caper

You never had us figured out
Lend stature, relevance and clout
Even called us pioneers,
When really we were privateers

You reveled in our plagiarism
Joined into the organism
Your pompousness and indecorum
Spewed on every online forum

How you dribbled, how you drooled
Priceless how we had you fooled
We hijacked your bedazzled souls
For ransom 'til we made it gold

[Chorus]
We're only in it for the money
To dip our fingers in your honey
We pretend to no end
We are bitches for your riches

We're only in it for the gain
Sex and drugs, and rock and roll fame
Jewelry, luxury
We are ... for your ....

We're only in it for the encore
We want it all, and then some more
...
... is our duty

We just want your cold hard cash
Get our hands into your stash
Now show up, listen, and behold
Finally the truth be told

We're only in it for the ....
The ... never burns
Can't get enough to stuff
The orifice of avarice

We're only in it for the money
To dip our fingers in your honey
We pretend to no end
We are bitches for your riches

We are bitches for your riches

"Blackball"

"Blackball"



I am the fake behind the door
The little worm that you ignore
That brittle rage the bitter rubble
Take your time and bring the trouble

And on this little poison river
The whiskey and wine that loves my liver
Ease it once sleaze it twice
My levy broke and so I choke

You do what you want to me
I give shit back to thee
Don't give one word I say
Now get out of my way

Blackball
Start the riot
They will never keep us quiet
Blackball
Flip the script
The veil of silence must be ripped
Blackball

I am the freedom that you flay
I am the guilt that you display
I am the scream you cannot help
I am the corpse that you felch

Blackball
Burn 'em down
Run the traitors out of town
Blackball
Wipe 'em out
Turn the triumph into rout
Blackball
Hang 'em high
Get them right between the eyes
Blackball
No amends
Shut up and muscle your defense

Willkommen zum ritt auf der rasierklinge
Machen wir der gepentischen veranstaltung ein ende
Lass uns den fettwanstigen kriegsgewinnlern die
Gefrassigen mauler
Stopfen
Zerreisse den schleier des schweigens
Wut und mut heissen die schonen tochter der hoffnung

I am the filth upon your fork
Your favorite cut of dirty pork
The second hand that stands so still
I am the clock that waits to kill

Blackball
Make 'em crawl
Blackball
Line 'em up against the wall
