Allow me to introduce me
"Predator" is my given name Sometimes even known as "Reaper" I don't care 'bout the shady fame By night (by night), by day (by day) Controlled from far away It's death I'm bringing When rules are gone Descending out of heaven I am a loaded gun War cry! War cry! Payback War cry! When drones attack War cry! No time to pray Neither terrorists nor children War cry! Will get away As soon as I leave the hangar Politics has clearly failed Justice or immoral murder? Civil death is the price we'll pay Air-strike (air-strike), bombs fall (bombs fall) Damage collateral It's death I'm bringing To Pakistan To targets in Somalia Also Afghanistan War cry! War cry! Payback War cry! When drones attack War cry! No time to pray Neither terrorists nor children War cry! Will get away War cry! War cry! Payback War cry! When drones attack War cry! No time to pray Neither terrorists nor children War cry! Will get away Doomsday! When drones attack War cry! No time to pray Neither terrorists nor children War cry! Will get away 02. Fooled By Your Guts
I know a tale that very surely must be told
Hard to believe, but certainly as true as gold It's an enigma, an exception in mankind Hark to my words and let the story twist your mind There was a man who lived in the U.S. Quite average he was, I must confess Quite decent, fair and settled as they say And here the story takes its course Fooled by your guts - They're brewing alcohol Fooled like a klutz - Fooled by your own brewing guts Belly-brewed beer - Who ever heard of that? Belly of fear - Fear of your own belly-beer They found him drunk with 3,70 per mill "I do not drink!" he swore to heaven and to hell No one believed him until finally one day Special doctor luckily would meet his way They locked him in a secret hideaway And nourished him on diet every day Whenever he ate any kind of carbs The story sadly took its course Fooled by your guts - They're brewing alcohol Fooled like a klutz - Fooled by your own brewing guts Belly-brewed beer - Who ever heard of that? Belly of fear - Fear of your own belly-beer They found saccharomyces cerevisiae Within his guts one liberating day A fungus turning starch to alcohol Where can I get that one? Fooled by your guts - They're brewing alcohol Fooled like a klutz - Fooled by your own brewing guts Belly-brewed beer - Who ever heard of that? Belly of fear - Fear of your own belly-beer Fooled by your guts! 03. R.I.B. (Rest In Beer)
They call (they call) me mad (me mad)
The scientist of dread Alas in '87 My grand invasion failed 'Bout time! New plan! Time is ripe - evil plan! 'Bout time! New plan! Made a deal with Satan The Lord (the lord) of hell (of hell) Helped my invention well With "Bad-Brew" I will wipe out The law of purity Chemical world dominion R.I.B. - rest in beer! "My little mad professor" Lucifer said to me "The humans gonna suffer!" R.I.B. - rest in beer! Soon my (soon my) idea (idea) Has taught mankind to fear The impact of my "Bad-Brew's" Infectious formula Spread out! For free! Spreading by drinks for free Spread out! For free! Purity - disappeared! Death on (death on) the fly (the fly) Kiss healthiness goodbye! With "Bad-Brew" I will wipe out The law of purity Chemical world dominion R.I.B. - rest in beer! "My little mad professor" Lucifer said to me "The humans gonna suffer!" R.I.B. - rest in beer! Satan's choir: All the mortals shall obey me! I will drag their souls to hell And a contract signed in toxics Drink it up - the poisoned ale! With "Bad-Brew" I will wipe out The law of purity Chemical world dominion R.I.B. - rest in beer! "My little mad professor" Lucifer said to me "The humans gonna suffer!" R.I.B. - rest in beer! Satan's choir: All the mortals shall obey me! I will drag their souls to hell And a contract signed in toxics Drink it up - the poisoned ale! 04. Riders Of The Doom
Bad brands rising - on mega-sales they ride
The evil corporations strive To conquer and enslave mankind Shackles made of profits - In banknotes clad they fight Their deadly smart-phone-axes kill Our precious savings overnight When all defenses fail The brand-lords will prevail Riders of the doom - ruthless tycoons! Riders of the doom - consumers beware! Men-in-suits-platoons - Will march into our living rooms No matter where you hide your funds - Riders of the doom! Exploitation - the lords of brands strike back With Micro-Rough, Sam-Hung, Goo-Gal Amass-On, Face-Hook, Barry-Black Blood and guts will splatter - women start to cry When Grapple swings the big i-sword Or terror-apps force you to buy When all defenses fail The Brand-Lords will prevail Riders of the doom - ruthless tycoons! Riders of the doom - consumers beware! Men-in-suits-platoons - Will march into our living rooms No matter where you hide your funds - Riders of the doom! Riders of the doom! When all defenses fail The Brand-Lords will prevail Riders of the doom - ruthless tycoons! Riders of the doom - consumers beware! Men-in-suits-platoons - Will march into our living rooms No matter where you hide your funds - Riders of the doom! Riders of the doom! Will ride into our living rooms No matter where you hide your funds - Riders of the doom! 05. Hope Can't Die
I heard the news last week
Rude shock! Fell to my knees The truth feels like a stranglehold Words of comfort seem so cold You've always been like a brother to me Now I'm forsaken, my heart's filled with grief From early childhood we have been like one Through thick and thin so sad that you're gone Anger! Is what I'm feeling 'Bout fate and destiny They are coldblooded bringers Of pain and misery Guilty! My first emotion Am I the one to blame? Could I have seen it coming? My doubts turn into shame Neither ambition Nor good intent or lie Will ease the sorrow Life means death, hope can't die! It took some courage Until I realized That we're all mortal Life goes on, hope can't die! Life goes on, hope can't die! I saw your face last day Palest white! Facade of clay Wish I had the guts to act But now it's too late your death is a fact So, dearest friend, may you now rest in peace I won't forget you those good memories Here at your gravestone there is one thing I'll swear Deep in my heart, you'll always be there Anger! Is what I'm feeling 'Bout fate and destiny They are coldblooded bringers Of pain and misery Guilty! My first emotion Am I the one to blame? Could I have seen it coming? My doubts turn into shame Neither ambition Nor good intent or lie Will ease the sorrow Life means death, hope can't die! It took some courage Until I realized That we're all mortal Life goes on, hope can't die! Life goes on, hope can't die! Neither ambition Nor good intent or lie Will ease the sorrow Life means death, hope can't die! It took some courage Until I realized That we're all mortal Life goes on, hope can't die! Neither ambition Nor good intent or lie Will ease the sorrow Life means death, hope can't die! It took some courage Until I realized That we're all mortal Life goes on, hope can't die! Life goes on, hope can't die! I heard the news last week Rude shock! Fell to my knees The truth feels like a stranglehold Woods of comfort seem so cold 06. No One Hit Wonder
No one hit wonder!
We're rolling thunder No one hit wonder! From over yonder No one hit wonder! Like Knack's Sharona? Or Teen Spirit moaner? Meet them, those superstars Who write a single hit On top of all the charts They are set for life with it Even when fame has gone They live in luxury Forever pop icons Pleasant, right? Pleasant treat! Where is the justice For our songs? Cause we are Tankard! Where the hell did we go wrong? No one hit wonder! We're rolling thunder No one hit wonder! From over yonder No one hit wonder! Like Knack's Sharona? Or Teen Spirit moaner? We played our asses off For more than 30 yeas But now our patience's gone We want cash, keep the beer!! There's only one way out A new identity Trans-gendering of course Sex sells well, that's the key! Where is the justice For our songs? Cause we are Tankard! Where the hell did we go wrong? No one hit wonder! We're rolling thunder No one hit wonder! From over yonder No one hit wonder! Like Knack's Sharona? Or Teen Spirit moaner? No one hit wonder! We're rolling thunder No one hit wonder! From over yonder No one hit wonder! Like Knack's Sharona? Or Teen Spirit moaner? No one hit wonder! 07. Breakfast For Champions
I woke up to total confusion
Could not figure out where I've been On my tongue a dead gopher rotting In my head throbbed a sore aching pain Raise my spirit! Revive my force! Raise my fire, my desire! Lave and light my fuse again! I still clutched a wondrous structure Shimmering dimly in the grey light Stale but unspilled, fizzyless but we Shared one bed and we shared the night Give me what I need today! Breakfast for champions! Get up in the Tankard way! Breakfast for champions! Liver, you will have to pay! Breakfast for champions! Get up in the Tankard way! Breakfast for champions! I compelled myself to a first kiss Sipping gently, then taking a gush All the colors that still were missing Flooded my gray world with a flush Raise my spirit! Revive my force! Raise my fire, my desire! Lave and light my fuse again! I woke up to total confusion Could not figure out where I've been On my tongue a dead gopher rotting In my head throbbed a sore aching pain Give me what I need today! Breakfast for champions! Get up in the Tankard way! Breakfast for champions! Liver, you will have to pay! Breakfast for champions! Get up in the Tankard way! Breakfast for champions! Give me what I need today! Breakfast for champions! Get up in the Tankard way! Breakfast for champions! Liver, you will have to pay! Breakfast for champions! Get up in the Tankard way! Breakfast for champions! Give me what I need today! Breakfast for champions! Get up in the Tankard way! Breakfast for champions! 08. Enemy Of Order
Spying on users, attacks on privacies
The daily news are frightening News about the agencies Facebook is Tracebook, Google and Apple too Structures I believed in turned out to be unsecure You make me angry with all your shit! You'll kill democracy and digging us a Brave new pit But I won't join you - I won't comply You are the criminals - protection's just a dirty lie! Enemy! Enemy of order! Enemy of order! You've lost my trust! Enemy! Enemy of order! Enemy of order! Disclosed your bluff! Tempora and Prism, Keyscore, Snowden's flight The governments deceive us, disregarding civil rights Is this prevention or is paranoid? Does it stop terrorism? Are the measures justified?

"Rock 'n' Rollers in wheelchairs"
That's what the headlines say "Old geezers retire!" Fuck off! We're here to stay! Fuck off! We're here to stay! Even dead we'd want to play! No! No cause to quit! We're kickin' butt! Butt kickin' lot! The party ain't over 'til we say so The party ain't over, the party ain't over The party isn't over 'til we say so It isn't over no! The party ain't over 'til we say so The party ain't over, the party ain't over The party isn't over 'til we say so That's what we're gonna show! All you killjoys and moaners We're back with amps to blast! Bring your bottles to safety Cause boozing is our task! Cause boozing is our task! Even dead we'd drink with class Fight! It's time to fight! Fight for your right! It's time to fight! The party ain't over 'til we say so The party ain't over, the party ain't over The party isn't over 'til we say so It isn't over no! The party ain't over 'til we say so The party ain't over, the party ain't over The party isn't over 'til we say so That's what we're gonna show! We'll keep banging 'til the nurse comes That's what we know for sure Like The Stones of thrash metal Remaining loud and pure Remaining loud and pure! Even dead we'd go on tour! No! No cause to quit! We're kickin' butt! Butt kickin' lot! The party ain't over 'til we say so The party ain't over, the party ain't over The party isn't over 'til we say so It isn't over no! The party ain't over 'til we say so The party ain't over, the party ain't over The party isn't over 'til we say so That's what we're gonna show! It isn't over no! That's what we're gonna show! It isn't over no! 'til we say so! It isn't over no! |
