Die Toten Hosen - Achterbahn lyrics

Energy, apathy, becoming one thing controlling and numbing the minds of the

poor things. The struggle becoming a battle you've already lost to discover

yourself, as a pillar a structure, but what have you got? To defend to repel

to begin the resistance that never has ended. We live in a world in a nation

that can't even fly it's own flag. We hang on to the past, with its

brutality and division. Why cant you just make a decision? The future is

yours. It's not theirs. It's not gods. It's not anyone's who presumes to own

you or the thoughts that make an original, shift all the subliminal brain

massage from the rich man's poet who's bright lights will lure your weakness.

Just keep the guns locked out of reach of the Children. Keep the guns locked

out of reach!

Can't you see you're breaking me

Can't you see you're faking me

Feel It

Can't You Feel It

Can't You Feel It

Can't You Feel That They've Failed You?

You're slowing the drugs in your veins are numbing every pain, every twinge,

every singe from the fire of globalization, you're warming your hands on the

bodies of children that learn so that MacDonald's can jack their yearly gross

earnings if it wasn't real it would seem to absurd. The fear grows, the fuse

blows on just one more bomb set by extremists that could have been me or

been you. A push or a shove when a smile or some love would have helped out

that kid off his face on his dexies, his parents shove down his throat so

they don't have to divert their attention from making their quota or buying

that sofa that's just oh so comfy. As all the porn pours in vein the Nike

channel, just keep your guns locked so very far out of reach!

They've Failed You

Breaking Me Down With Their Holy Water
