I'll meet you in West Germany |
|
October 1983 |
|
I know the freedom was a lie |
|
and you husband was a spy |
|
You say that words are impotent |
|
But they can help us pay the rent |
|
I knew for sure there was nothing left |
|
Except the vodka on your breath |
|
We meet in Strasbourg |
|
In Strasbourg |
|
Dann sind wir HeldenWe meet in Strasbourg |
|
The courage that your father plucked |
|
From inside a cattle truck |
|
Will help us fix the exit polls |
|
Our children must have rock'n'roll |
|
Surveillance cameras captured dawn |
|
Breaking on the autobahn |
|
I knew for sure our chance was blown |
|
When rifles made you feel at home |
|
We meet in Strasbourg |
|
In Strasbourg |
|
Dann sind wir Helden |
|
We meet in Strasbourg |
|
We meet in Strasbourg |
|
In Strasbourg |
|
Dann sind wir Helden |
|
We meet in Strasbourg |
|
Eins, zwei, drei, vier |
|
deas can change the government |
|
But they never listen to our arguments |
|
On TV our friends smashed cement |
|
And pulled down the bastards monuments |
|
I went outside for a cigarette |
|
I could see things I had tried to forget |
|
The news showed us who we had left |
|
And I could smell the vodka on your breath |
