Track notes
[edit]Heute trinken wir richtig
[edit]Literally "Today we drink right", but means "Today we drink a lot"; a song about extreme alcohol consumption.
Das Signum des Verrats
[edit]"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
[edit]"The hour of victory" - meaning that everyone will have the chance to strike back and to change their life.
Was kann ich denn dafür
[edit]"What can I do for it, that we're so beautiful" - in this song the band glorifies itself.
Ein Mensch wie du und ich
[edit]"A human like you and me" - a song about perverts.
Keiner wusste, wie's geschah
[edit]"Nobody knew how it happened" - about the band and its arising celebrity in the scene.
Hässlich, brutal und gewalttätig
[edit]"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
[edit]"Call me God".
7 Tage ohne Sünde
[edit]"7 days without sin" - meaning seven days without sex, because the person concerned has a sexually transmitted infection.
Hass
[edit]"Hate" - an anti-political song. "Workless youths are today normal, the rich more richer, all other is the same".
