1. Light
The blind inspiration, total disillusion
Instant consecration, mind and body fusion
Frontal assault on the seven senses
Orgasmic waste, eccentric and pretentious
KMFDM, doing it again
A treat for the freaks, truth or dare
Are you ready for this? we don't care
Deify data, hard but true
Godlike nonsense being thrown at you
We keep simple, tough and outright
Easy to swallow, KMFDM light
KMFDM, doing it again
A treat for the freaks, truth or dare
How low can you go? we don't care
In a world of deceit, open your eyes
What we do for you, so good for you
Don't be afraid and you'll realize
What you do for me, so good for me
One way or another, now or later
Bow down and worship the true creator
Musik ist macht, eine ausgesprochene
Verbindung von Schlau und Dunn.
Geruschschtigen wird unter immensem
Druck und Leidenschaft grosste
Freude und Vertrauen abgesaugt.
Der Heldenriff ist der Froschfresser.
Der Rhythmus ein schoner Schwan.
Nur die Worte ein Blutegel an deinem gehirn.
Keiner macht fur dich mehr.
Take a good plunge and out from the masses
Bend over backwards and kick some asses
Call 1-800, accept no imitation
KMFDM, one world, one nation
2. A Drug Against War
Television, religion, social destruction
Sex and drugs, violent seduction
Crystal dawn, ecstatic explosion
Parental advice leads to mental erosion
Stronger than never ever before
KMFDM is a drug against war
Line after line, round after round
Empty shells fall to the ground
Faster than lightning, high as a kite
Sonic bombardment brighter than sunlight
No need for needles, no injection
The substance substitutes love and affection
Total sedation of longing desire
Cremation of senses in friendly fire
5. Glory
War and slavery, exploitation
The common faces of the western nations
Official version, a falsified story
The truth lies buried in a shroud of glory
Influential people aren't serving time
For being involved in organized crime
But stashed away in beautiful mansions
Guess who provides for their generous pensions?
Oppression, ignorance, censorship rule
Education is more than what's taught in school
Forced in the mold, held down by threats
Decisions are made over our heads
But there is a way to refuse and resist
We don't need to be ruled with the iron fist
We are the people, we are strong
Let's make up our minds and call them wrong
Black man, white man, yellow man
Rip the system
Religion and TV, we're under the thumb
Grown to believe because we're already numb
6. Move On
Reflect in the mirror, revenge is redundant
Resurrect your idols, return to the basics
Realign your thoughts, relocate to zero
Reverse into backward, repossess your soul
Now is the time, reassess your values
Going back to the basics, to powerful means
At the end of the day, it's an incredible scene
We are ready to rock, get ??? or die
My inner circle's helter skelter, echoes loving ecstasy
I know I'll find a way to live, a way for you and me
Stuck in the past, with a ??? to suck in sadness
Don't pretend understanding, understanding the ???
???
Generational madness is crawling again
Right on the edge of a nightmarish war
Roaming the land like never before
Center yourself now, the trouble of helping
The details of ???, like in the past
Introducing the power of surviving the contest
Believe in your own strength, and now is the time
Doesn't really matter what you believe
Doesn't really matter if you belong
7. No Peace
Without rhyme, without reason
Blabbering ??? treason
A place for the people and hands of the fools
How much longer will ignorance rule?
We'll get it all, we'll get it all
You have to know that we'll have it all
So, face it the place is a mess
No, no good don't act like you should
We, we're doomed, right from the start
No, no don't the choice is too hard
Now it's your turn to fight
Armed and ready, famous and rich
Now it's your turn to fight
The time has come to flip the switch
Now it's your turn to fight
So what do you know and how does it feel?
Now it's your turn to fight
No peace without justice and that's for real.
Reserve, a much better life
Control a harmless obsession
We, ???
You, your days are numbered you bet
9. Sucks
We like talking dirty, we smoke and we drink
We're KMFDM and all other bands stink
Our music is sampled, totally fake
It's done by machines 'cause they don't make mistakes
We don't have no lyrics, our message is nil
We hate all DJ's, they're making us ill
Whatever we tell you is meant to be crap
We hate all music and especially rap
We don't like Michael Jackson, we hate Depeche Mode
We don't care for Madonna or Kylie Minogue
Our records have stickers with a warning from Tipper
'Cause they're no good for kids if we'd get her we'd strip her
KMFDM forward the ultimate sound
And a message from Satan if you turn it around
Hey Satan its En Esh talking down/now, let me know whats going on man,
call-call me anytime man, anytime man, I dont know its your call ??
You might think we're stupid but we're way above it
We don't give a shit and the kids just love it
We wouldn't sell to a major for a couple of bucks
No doubt about it, KMFDM sucks
10. The Problem
There was a hearing.
The rules were broken by one, followed by another.
The evidence was presented, an overwhelming list of infractions.
An overwhelming re-presentation
Of his maladjustment to the system
The hearing was about him, about his attitude, about his behavior.
He is, he represents (No)
He implies the problem
If he is expelled, the problem will go away
Responsibility, relationship, mutuality, absolution.
A person with a problem, I believe there's no such thing
As a person with a problem.
If there is a problem it's a problem with the system.
The system of home and family, of school and community.
He is not in this alone.
He is not the problem.
A refelction of the system.
A mirror image of ourselves, and our work.
We acknowledge not all kids fit our ancillary desires
And when they don't fit, they become the problem
Expell the problem, make it go away.
