We Need Guns
01:40
|

We need guns
we need them now
our schools aren’t safe
bad guys don’t die when you (just) shout
We need guns
we need them fast
our malls aren’t safe
good guys stand strong and steadfast
arm the teachers, arm the nurses
arm the priests and all the kids
doctors, lawyers, judges, politicians
all in arms, whiping out the dregs
we need more guns
to kill them all
annihilate the human race

Decisions
02:18
|

In the store and on the internet
I am sweating and my palms are wet
I don’t know what to get, there’s so much stuff here
My hands are trembling, I’m breaking down in tears
So much to choose from – I can’t decide

Plastic
01:43
|

You live in a plastic house
you think all these plastic thoughts
someone else put them in you
and now you're fully grown
but you're nothing but a drone
Plastic! Plastic!
Everything's plastic!
your blood's full of particles
that don't belong there
but I have an idea
I'll drain all your blood
we'll make vinyl records (from it)
and we’ll sell them to your kids
Plastic! Plastic!
Everything's plastic!

Bar On The Moon
02:10
|
|||
This Chechen boy wants a Tesla and a PS5
an Afghan girl wants to play soccer and just live her life
a Chadian kid wants a bowl of rice – or just anything
this German middle agedd dude wants a clean conscience and enough time to sing
...besides his job
I don’t need anymore things
well-respected entrepreneur wants a space ship and a bar on the moon
to sip some space Gin and Tonic in his bar on the moon
Elonian delusions of grandeur in pursuit of the bling bling
this German middle agedd dude wants a clean conscience and enough time to sing
...besides his job

Green Mold Frustration
01:51
|
|||
Bring up the seedlings
nurture and care
Watch the little ones grow
nurture and care
fertilizing and being real patient
Your „tomatoes“ look beautiful
Green Mold Frustration
But then I made a mistake
I forgot about them one day
It was just one little mistake
how could they be so ungrateful
Oh, I beat myself up and cried
It’s my fault it’s all moldy

Exist
02:02
|
|||
What’s real? What is real to you?
Your eyes are the only eyes you can see through
What’s love? What is hate to you?
Your parents are the only parents that made you
Free will so powerful – does it really exist?
Or are we slaves to class, to norms or social facts?
What’s right? What is wrong to you?
Socialization that defined your values
Who’s rich, middle class, who’s poor?
You think you know? How can you be so sure?

Complete Annihilation
02:32
|
|||
There’s a war, it’s crazy and people are dying
We all know about it and we’ve always known
Politicians, military, intelligence – noone’s really ending it
The question is: Can anyone?
Mankind isn’t right, it has never been
the only hope is complete annihilation
Taking vengeance calls for vengeance
Is this insanity just human nature?
No hand to hand combat like cowboys or knights
Just a brutal endless fight!
