Track notes

Heute trinken wir richtig

Literally "Today we drink right", but means "Today we drink a lot"; a song about extreme alcohol consumption.

Das Signum des Verrats

"The sign of betrayal" - referring to the punk and skinhead scene, which drifted into left-wing (punks) and right-wing (skinheads) circles and so betrayed their own basic idea.

Stunde des Siegers

"The hour of victory" - meaning that everyone will have the chance to strike back and to change their life.

Was kann ich denn dafür

"What can I do for it, that we're so beautiful" - in this song the band glorifies itself.

Ein Mensch wie Du und ich

"A human like you and me" - a song about perverts.

Keiner wusste, wie's geschah

"Nobody knew how it happened" - about the band and its arising celebrity in the scene.

Hässlich, brutal und gewalttätig

"We wear all swastikas / Skinheads have only violence in sense / Is it that you want to hear / that we're brainless fighters?" - the song implies that skinheads are not all neonazis, and the refrain "We are ugly, brutally and violating" gives the song an ironic note.

Nennt mich Gott

"Call me God".

7 Tage ohne Sünde

"7 days without sin" - meaning seven days without sex, because the person concerned has a sexually transmitted infection.

Hass

"Hate" - an anti-political song. "Workless youths are today normal, the rich more richer, all other is the same".
