I've got to tell you about a strange, poor man.
|
I met him at our concert, now he's a legend in our band.
|
Claimed we had to sell him a T-shirt for one mark,
|
I explained we really try to be as cheap as we can
|
But that didn't get through to that man.
|
|
Yeah, it is cool that you believe in me, but you have to understand
|
We're not Peter K., Emma, Gandhi and Marx reincarnated as a punkrockband.
|
And even if we found our major enemy
|
In the core of this capital dynasty,
|
We're still a part of this goddamn money machine.
|
|
Right after the show, strengthened with a bottle of wine,
|
He said to me: "Diese T-shirt ist ja mein,
|
You capitalistische schwein" !!
|
He grabbed an empty bottle of beer
|
And aimed right at my head,
|
I got scared and took shelter right behind my own amp
|
And the glass swished above my head.
|
|
Yeah, it is cool that you believe in me, but you have to understand
|
We're not Peter K., Emma, Gandhi and Marx reincarnated as a punkrockband.
|
And even if we found our major enemy
|
In the core of this capital dynasty,
|
We're still a part of this goddamn money machine.
|
|
But it's so fucking hard to be
|
The perfect human that you demand of me,
|
But I want everyone to know that we really try to practice what we preach,
|
But I guess the reason for this fight is just your own bad conscious that bleeds.
|
|
Yeah, it is cool that you believe in me, but you have to understand
|
We're not Peter K., Emma, Gandhi and Marx reincarnated as a punkrockband.
|
And even if we found our major enemy
|
In the core of this capital dynasty,
|
We're still a part of this goddamn money machine.
|
|
Oh baby, now I see that from what that man did to me,
|
I could surely have made the funniest song that the world's ever seen.
|
But still now when I've found I'm the worst storyteller around,
|
I will keep up my reading, I will keep my pen bleeding 'til everybody's free.
