01. Adios

Music & lyrics by Sascha Konietzko, Tim Skold
It's been too many times that I stuck out my neck for you
It's been too many times that I spoke my mind to you
It's been too many times that I caught all the flak from you
Apathetic crap is all I can find in you

I don't want no part in this
I don't feel the need to score
Burnt all bridges
Closed my heart
I don't want to be a part
No more

Dosvidanija, Ciao, Adieu
Hasta la vista, I'm on my way
Goodbye, Sayonara
Auf Nimmerwiedersehen
Over and out
And down the drain

It's been too many times that I raised my voice at you
It's been too many times that I walked the line with you
It's been too many times that I've had no choice but you
Hypocritical swine I have had it this time, fuck you

I don't want no part in this
I don't feel the need to score
Burnt all bridges
Closed my heart
I don't want to be a part
No more

Dosvidanija, Ciao, Adieu
Hasta la vista, I'm on my way
Goodbye, Sayonara
Auf Nimmerwiedersehen
Over and out
And down the drain

02. Sycophant

Music & lyrics by Sascha Konietzko, Tim Skold
KMFDM's gonna rock the house

I'm the liberation of intoxication
The abomination of infatuation
The epitome of the enemy
Perfect agony until infinity

So many drugs so little time
So many drugs so little time
I'm the indication
Not the confirmation
I'm the inclination
The determination
I'm a helping hand
Down in neverland
I'm a sycophant
I am mega-man

So many drugs so little time
Expect the impossible
So many drugs so little time
Eins, zwei, drei, vier, ja
Expect the impossible
Expect the impossible
Expect the impossible
KMFDM's gonna rock the house
I'm the falling rain
I'm your brother Cain
I'm a shot of pain
Right into your brain
I'm an accident
I'm the dissident
The empowerment
Of the incompetent

So many drugs so little time
So many drugs so little time
KMFDM's gonna rock the house
Expect the impossible
So many drugs so little time
Expect the impossible
Expect the impossible
So many drugs so little time Expect the impossible
KMFDM's gonna rock the house

03. D.I.Y

Music & lyrics by Sascha Konietzko, Tim Skold
A new revolution
The ultimate war
KMFDM is back for more
Twice the mayhem
Triple the force
Ten times the action
Total hardcore

Shanghai, Stockholm, Berlin, Tel Aviv
The world rotates to the Ultra Heavy Beat
From the gutter to the top
KMFDM will never stop

Violence, anger and anarchy
A megaton load of toxic debris
Money, power, all you can eat
The manifestation of ultimate greed

Tokyo, Moscow, Chicago, Madrid
The world rotates to the Ultra Heavy Beat
From the gutter to the top
KMFDM will never stop

Rip the system, throw it away
No legislation can stand in our way
Anti-anti in the USA
Ends with an M
Begins with a K

D.I.Y. - destroy what destroys you
D.I.Y. - do or die
D.I.Y. - destroy what destroys you
D.I.Y.

D.I.Y. - destroy what destroys you
D.I.Y. - do or die
D.I.Y. - destroy what destroys you
D.I.Y.

D.I.Y. - destroy what destroys you
Anti-anti in the USA
D.I.Y. - destroy what destroys you
Ends with an M
Begins with a K

Destroy

04. Today

Music & lyrics by Sascha Konietzko, Tim Skold
Isolation
When you leave it's like I disappear
Desolation
Every time you go it feels like
Seconds slowly turn to minutes
A month of Sundays coming up
Time again it pulls me under
Wonder if I'll ever rise above
It's too much but not enough

Misery loves company
For a little bit of sympathy

It's here today but it's gone tomorrow
It's here today and today will never come again
It's here today

Desperation
Sinking into somewhere dark and cold
Deviation
A place I knew I didn't want to go
To forget is all I know

Misery loves company
For a little bit of sympathy

It's here today but it's gone tomorrow
It's here today and today will never come again
It's here today but it's gone tomorrow
It's here today and today will never come again
It's here today

Minutes slowly turn to hours
Another moment passes by
Seconds of eternity
I wonder if it's time to say goodbye

It's here today but it's gone tomorrow
It's here today and today will never come again
It's here today but it's gone tomorrow
It's here today and today will never come again
It's here today

05. Witness

Music & lyrics by Sascha Konietzko, Tim Skold, Nina Hagen
Inter-planetary frequency
Alteration of destiny
Inter-planetary frequency
Surrendering to my ultimate destiny

The spaceship will come to take us away
Out of the orbit and into the light
We're gonna be picked up and sent on a flight
Get ready to join us
Escape the destruction enjoy the abduction
Enjoy the abduction
Surrender
Enjoy the abduction
Surrender
Enjoy the abduction
Supernova

I will always praise my maker
I will always return to my taker
I will never be a faker
I will never be a forsaker

I will always praise my maker
I will always return to my taker
I will never be a faker
I will never be a forsaker

They are visiting us for their genetic testing
I don't think it's such a blessing
But then again how can I know
I must not judge so much
You know

The message I've got is simple and easy
When we get on the spaceship we must not flip
We have to be fearless it helps to keep smiling
Are you ready to join us?
Avoid the disaster and be with the master
And be with the master
Surrender
And be with the master
Surrender
And be with the master
Bend over

I will always praise my maker
I will always return to my taker
I will never be a faker
I will never be a forsaker

I will always praise my maker
I will always return to my taker
I will never be a faker
I will never be a forsaker

Immortality
Mortality
I am unsterblich
Sterblich
I'm a witness

A UFO factory
With millions of robots around
One of the entities drew blood
From your finger into a syringe
Was it against my will?
It was a thrill
Hey you humanoid
Where did you come from?
Do you know your maker?

The spaceship will come to take us away
Out of the orbit and into the light
Surrender
Surrender
We're gonna be picked up and sent on a flight
Get ready to join us
Escape the destruction enjoy the abduction
Enjoy the abduction
Supernova

I think they need us
I think we don't need them
I think they need us
I think we don't need them

Don't try to rationalize it
Just analyze it
Advertise it

Be fearless

06. R.U.OK?

Music & lyrics by Sascha Konietzko, Tim Skold
That's fine with me
Don't think I care
Do what you want
As you see fit
That's quite alright
It's all okay
Just be yourself
That's fine with me

For a second you might wonder if it's real

If that's alright
Just say okay
If that felt good
Let's go again

For a moment you might question what you see
For a second your whole world will disappear

This is mind control and you know it
This will shut you up and you know it

What's wrong with you?
R. U. OK?
Are you still here?
Don't slip away
Just breathe in deep
And stay awake
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes

For a moment you might question what you see
For a second your whole world will disappear

This is mind control and you know it
This will shut you up and you know it

Mind control

This is mind control
Mind control
This is mind control
Mind control
This is mind control

That's all you get
It's all you need

07. That's All

Music & lyrics by Sascha Konietzko, Tim Skold, Nivek Ogre, En Esch
Read the vision map the system soon to look into the mind
Rediscover one another from abnormal points in time
Fascination wish a way in to depart before they find
Get defamed in isolation two plus one negate divine

Feed the vicious escalation never felt such close connection
Feel the fever-patch persuasion
News-print news-peak nevermind
Suffocation and delusion from what angle see the truth in
At an angle point of friction free-fall tip-off destiny

I've got a fistful of money I'm down with the twist
There's plenty of ways no way to resist
Every little thing is gonna be fine
What I like is gonna be mine
Got a fistful of money I'm high at risk
There's plenty of ways I couldn't resist
Six billion souls and one urge to live
I've got a fistful of money and nothing to give

Free the hostage situation taken as a simulation
Never was a war more real taken for a dollar bill
Currency add more corruption added population problem
Feeding hunger starve the weak
News-print news-peak nevermind

I've got a fistful of money I'm down with the twist
There's plenty of ways no way to resist
Every little thing is gonna be fine
What I like is gonna be mine
Got a fistful of money I'm high at risk
There's plenty of ways I couldn't resist
Six billion souls and one urge to live
I've got a fistful of money and nothing to give

That's all
That's all
That's all
That's all

Hate in love desert in good favor
Diversification of the current flavor
Speak in tongues like empathy's son
See the soul disengaging the sicker they come

I've got a fistful of money I'm down with the twist
There's plenty of ways no way to resist
Every little thing is gonna be fine
What I like is gonna be mine
Got a fistful of money I'm high at risk
There's plenty of ways I couldn't resist
Six billion souls and one urge to live
I've got a fistful of money and nothing to give

That's all
That's all
That's all
That's all
That's all
That's all
That's all
That's all

08. Full Worm Garden

Music & lyrics by Sascha Konietzko, Tim Skold, Nivek Ogre, Bill Rieflin
A token left with judgment a memento left ajar
A secret never wanted death defying little charms
How to defend pretend selective piss-away so long neglected
Pretty-frozen underground from above the odor leering

Pass the meat from which I stink of
All those tethered whether-wise

A blood stain all the wiser desperation kicks the stool
A little bruise to lose demure a staple cut and dry
In the sink dissection decimation is the rule
In determining direction acting agent act the fool

Pass the meat from which I stink of
Putrid helping kept inside

Tincture warning second cousin to the new invention
Addictive so charming second only to a forced infusion
Tincture of lead be said with no remorse full of confusion
Wish to enjoy this weightlessness lay me out full worm garden

A prick upon the finger looking back like looking through
To develop in the mixture of a portion of a view
The distant elevation of a faded wicked high
Divination ask a question of a spirit for a thing you used to hide

Pass the meat from which I stink of
Passed out serving on the side
From the meat I'm suffocating
Cutting from the bone to hide

Tincture warning second cousin to the new invention
Addictive so charming second only to a forced infusion
Tincture of lead be said with no remorse full of confusion
Wish to enjoy this weightlessness lay me out full worm garden

A noose-knit put on sweater tie it up around the arm
Looks to grip along the trigger down the barrel of a gun
Assume today a game to play cardboard house in disarray
Tremble little joker think dig it deep don't be afraid

09. Rubicon

Music & lyrics by Sascha Konietzko, Tim Skold
Cross the rubicon
Burn the fire sign
Only victory is bliss
Bend a broken rule
Break the symmetry
Put all progress in remiss

Rinse out the ugly and purge every demon
A small step for progress a leap for the mind
The smoke never settles where everything's even
A poke in the eye the equation is nil

Violence for inner-peace
Bombing for therapy
Terror is everything you need

Cross the dotted line
Fake your destiny
Give a finger take a hand
Use the enemy
Turn the outside in
Tell the prophet it's the end

Money is power and power's corruption
There's nothing to gain from the absolute truth
Natural selection is based on deception
The ignorant elder empowers the youth

Violence for inner-peace
Bombing for therapy
Terror is everything you need

Money is power and power's corruption
There's nothing to gain from the absolute truth
Natural selection is based on deception
The ignorant elder empowers the youth

Violence for inner-peace
Bombing for therapy
Terror is everything you need

10. Bereit

Music & lyrics by Sascha Konietzko, Tim Skold, En Esch
Tragische Gedanken wie im Netz verfangen
Tauchen ihre Pranken in ein kühles Grab
Gespenstische Visionen haben leise Sohlen
Du fällst aus allen Wolken wirst Dich nie erholen
Aus der Haut zu fahren aus dem Staub zu machen
Nicht mehr einzukriegen nicht der Mühe wert
Verlassen uns die Kräfte wir brauchen neue Säfte
Verloren alle rechte am Busen der Natur

Ich glaube nicht an dieses Glück
An Brüderschaft
An die Verfolgung dieses Glücks

Gerechtigkeit entfache gib' uns eine Rache
Die da hilft der Sache sich auszubalancieren
Viele Augen weinen werden es bereuen
Sich zu früh zu freuen Hoffnung wird zu Schreien

Ich glaube nicht an dieses Glück
An Brüderschaft
An die Verfolgung dieses Glücks

Oh Mutter Erde gib' einmal acht
Ich mach' Dir 'ne Freude hab' Dir was gebracht
Das Lied vom Betrügen das Lied von der Macht
Die Strophe wird enden es ist fast vollbracht
Wir drehen uns im Kreise im gleichen Takt
Schneller und schneller es ist fast ist fast vollbracht
Oh Mutter Erde hörst du uns schreien
Wir sind Deine Kinder und haben es satt

Wir sind bereit

Tragische Gedanken wie im Netz verfangen
Tauchen ihre Pranken in ein kühles Grab
Gespenstische Visionen haben leise Sohlen
Du fällst aus allen Wolken wirst Dich nie erholen

Ich glaube nicht an dieses Glück
An Brüderschaft
An die Verfolgung dieses Glücks

Oh Mutter Erde gib' einmal acht
Ich mach' Dir 'ne Freude hab' Dir was gebracht
Das Lied vom Betrügen das Lied von der Macht
Die Strophe wird enden es ist fast vollbracht
Wir drehen uns im Kreise im gleichen Takt
Schneller und schneller es ist fast vollbracht
Oh Mutter Erde hörst du uns schreien
Wir sind Deine Kinder und haben es satt

Wir sind bereit
Wir sind bereit
Wir sind bereit
Wir sind bereit
