Hello everybody

Special news flash

Zwanzig siebzehn wählt Deutschland seinen Kopf

Ich kratze mich am Kopf

Ich hab jetzt schon keinen Bock

Eure Tortendiagramme sollten

In der Storch ihr Gesicht landen

Die AfD ist zweistellig

-würd’ doch bloß einer nen Witz machen!

Logisch statt dieser Partei

Die Partei ‚die Partei’ zu wählen

Ich zieh’ in Erwägung in

Einen Freefight-Verein zu gehen

Werfe einen Blick auf die Landtagswahlen

Und möchte direkt einen Panzer fahren

Merkel Beef mit ander’n Christen

Weil sie Obergrenzen ausschließt

Alle tragen Heiligenschein

Weil Volker Beck mal drauf ist

Gauland fühlt sich von Kinderaugen erpresst

In Clausnitz und Bautzen

Gibt es ein rauschendes Fest (wack!)

Direkte Demokratie äußert sich

Neuerdings durch Brandanschläge

Sächsische Cops scheuen sich nicht

Ihren Rassismus bekannt zu geben

Steinbach bleibt Steinbach

Und Blaukraut bleibt Blaukraut

Give Peace a Chance!

- aber manchmal will ich nur noch draufhauen

Ich verliere das Vertrauen

Ich befürchte irgendwann

Steht für mich und alle meine Leute

Die Entscheidung an:

Einsame Insel oder Untergrund?

Ich verliere das Vertrauen

Ich befürchte irgendwann

Steht für mich und alle meine Leute

Die Entscheidung an:

Einsame Insel oder Untergrund?

Was sind deutsche Werte

Wenn sie nicht beschissen sind?

Ich träume schon

Ich wäre Selbstjustizministerin

Was geht ab mit Nächstenliebe?

Was würde euer Jesus sagen? (Was denn?)

Eine Lebenslüge

Für jede Lebenslage

Und sie schnüren Asylpakete

Als wären es Geschenke

Schengen ist Vergangenheit

Man baut jetzt wieder Grenzen

In Idomeni gibt es Pfeffer

Durch den Zaun

Sie wollen Mauern

Aus Gerechtigkeit erbauen

Mon Amie in Calais

Da roden sie den Dschungel

Zugenähte Münder streiken und Hunger

Europa keine Festung

Aber Festungen

Die Toten gehören schon jetzt

Zu den Vergessenen (Wer?)

Gewalt erzeugt Gegengewaltphantasien

Pazifismus ist ein Loser

Und vom Scheitern besiegt

Wir sind alle Zeuginnen

Und zum Handeln gezwungen

Die einen werden Hippies

Und die anderen sind vermummt

Ich verliere das Vertrauen

Ich befürchte irgendwann

Steht für mich und alle meine Leute

Die Entscheidung an:

Einsame Insel oder Untergrund?

Ich verliere das Vertrauen

Ich befürchte irgendwann

Steht für mich und alle meine Leute

Die Entscheidung an:

Einsame Insel oder Untergrund?

Hello everybody

One

In two thousand seventeen Germany elects its head1

I’m scratching my head

I’m already not in the mood for it

Your pie charts should

End up in Storch’s face2

The AfD has double digits3

-you got to be kidding!

It’s logical to elect the party

“die Partei’ instead of this party4

I’m considering

Joining a free fight club

I take a quick look at the regional elections

And right away it makes me want to drive a panzer5

Merkel has a beef with other Christians

Because she rules out caps6

Everyone wears a halo

Because Volker Beck is high7

Gauland feels extorted by the eyes of children8

In Clausnitz and Bautzen

There’s a jamboree (wack!)9

Recently direct democracy manifests

Itself through arson attacks

Cops in Saxony unbashfully

Show their racism10

Steinbach remains Steinbach11

And Blaukraut remains Blaukraut12

Give Peace a Chance!

- but sometimes I just want to punch them

I lose confidence

I fear that one day

I and all my people will have to face

The decision:

A lonely island or the underground?

I lose confidence

I fear that one day

I and all my people will have to face

The decision:

A lonely island or the underground?

What are German values

If they’re not shitty

I’m already dreaming

I would be minister of street justice13

What’s up with loving your neighbor?

What would your Jesus say? (What?)

A grand delusion

For every situation in life

And they tie asylum packages

As if they were gifts

Schengen belongs in the past

Borders are now being built again14

In Idomeni there’s pepper

Through the fence15

They want to build walls

Out of justice

My friend in Calais

Where they are clearing the jungle16

Mouths sewn shut on strike and hunger

Europe no fortress

But fortresses

The deceased already belong

To the forgotten (Who?)

Violence creates fantasies of counter-violence

Pacifism is a loser

And conquered by failure

We are all witnesses

And forced to act

Some become hippies

And others wear hoods17

I lose confidence

I fear that one day

I and all my people will have to face

The decision:

A lonely island or the underground?

I lose confidence

I fear that one day

I and all my people will have to face

The decision:

A lonely island or the underground?

1. The 2017 German presidential election on February 12, 2017
2. Beatrix von Storch, the leader of AfD, the German far-right party. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beatrix_von_Storch
3. In the 2016 regional elections AfD takes 10%
4. Die PARTEI is outspokenly anti-Nazi and in many senses quite the opposite of AfD. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Die_PARTEI
5. A German tank of World War II
6. Within the parliamentary groups CDU and CSU there was a dispute whether an upper limit for new arrivals in Germany should be set. The CSU demands an upper limit of up to 200,000 refugees a year, the CDU refuses. Angela Merkel, for example, said that "the fundamental right to asylum for politically persecuted persons does not have an upper limit; this also applies to the refugees who come to us from the hell of a civil war."
7. The Green Party politician Volker Beck was caught in March 2016 with 0.6 grams of Crystal Meth. The scandal raised by the party and media can be seen as hypocritical while many in the politics and media industry make use of drugs.
8. "We cannot let ourselves be blackmailed by children's eyes"
The deputy chairman of the Alternative for Germany (AfD), Alexander Gauland, spoke in favor of a border closure during the refugee crisis. "We have to close the borders and then endure the gruesome aftermath," Gauland said to the ZEIT magazine.
9. In February 2016 there were riots against refugees in Clausnitz where a bus with refugees to the first occupancy of the local refugee shelter was blocked by about 100 demonstrators who chanted "We are the people!" and shouted xenophobic slogans. Bautzen in Saxony also came under xenophobic attacks. Right-wing youth drove minor refugees through the city in September. In November, refugees were threatened with firearms. In December several incendiary devices were thrown at the refugee shelter "Spreehotel".
10. In March 2016 a copy of the Compact magazine was clearly visible on the dash of a police car during an AfD demonstration. A picture of this received considerable media attention, since the magazine is considered to openly relay right-wing propaganda.
11. CDU member of parliament Erika Steinbach regularly provokes public outrage with her racist tweets.
12. A well-known German tongue-twister. "Blaukraut bleibt Blaukraut und Brautkleid bleibt Brautkleid."
13. A word play on Justizministerin (Minister of Justice) and Selbstjustiz (self-justice).
14. The Schengen Agreement of 1985 reduced the control of persons at the internal borders of the individual Member States of the EU and has since become synonymous with freedom of movement within Europe. However, in the wake of the refugee debate, many countries are considering reintroducing or strengthening border controls.
15. Idomeni is a symbol of despair and escalation within the refugee crisis.
When the Greek-Macedonian border was closed, several thousand people who wanted to travel to Western Europe gathered in the following weeks. Protests for the opening of the border escalated and clashes broke out with Macedonian border guards, with the Greek police, and also between the various groups that were divided into "refugees" and "migrants" at the border. Refugees who do not come from Afghanistan, Syria or Iraq have not been allowed to pass though this is in violation of the Geneva Refugee Convention. In part, the security situation at the border has become so strained that official relief agencies have stopped providing for refugees.
The Macedonian police fired rubber bullets and demonstrators threw stones. According to eyewitnesses, the Greek police used tear gas and pepper spray against protesters. The situation has been so dramatic that refugees have invaded homes in search of food and firewood.
16. The jungle of Calais was a tent city with provisional accommodation near the French city of Calais, which became important in the refugee crisis in Europe from 2015 onwards. More than 9,000 migrants camped there in August 2016, waiting for a chance to travel on through the Eurotunnel to the UK. From 24 to 26 October 2016, the refugee camp was completely cleared and then closed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calais_Jungle
17. With the escalation of the current political situation, some people join either pacifist groups (hippies) and others join radical / militant groups, which are usually masked in demonstrations
