In der deutschen Verfassung steht
Die Todesstrafe ist abgeschafft,
doch hin und wieder
tritt diese Verfassung außer Kraft
Denn um die Sicherheit I'm deutschen Staat
mit allen Mitteln zu bewahren
holt man sich immer wieder gerne Rat
bei den Gesetzen von vor sechzig Jahren

Was früher die Gestapo war
ist heut das BKA
nur damals setzte man Henker ein
und heut gibt es die GSG 9

Kopfschuß-
das war kein Selbtmord, das war Mord
Kopfschuß-
Ihr habt gelogen seit dem ersten Wort
Kopfschuß-
Das war ein mieser, feiger Mord
Kopfschuß-
und ich glaube Euch kein Wort-
nie mehr ein Wort

Ist die Regierung erst in Panik,
gilt weder Ordnung noch Moral
Das Gesetz wird ausgeschaltet
und da Menschenrecht egal
Polizei ist Staat I'm Staat, Selbstherrlichheit regiert
Ist der Staatsfeind lokalisiert,
wird auf Rambo-Art agiert

Was früher die Gestapo war...

Kopfschuß-
das war kein Selbtmord...

Ihr könnt erzählen, was Ihr wollt
Ich glaub' Euch niemals mehr ein Wort
Ihr habt uns immer schon belogen,
habt uns eingelullt und habt uns abgefüllt
unsere Seelen kastriert
und unsere Hirne amputiert
uns manipuliert, uns wegzensiert, uns exekutiert,
doch mir reicht es jetzt:
Ich spiele eure Spiele nicht mehr,
Ich scheiß Euch ins Gesicht: Fickt Euch- Mörder!

Was früher die Gestapo war...

Kopfschuß-
das war kein Selbtmord...
und ich glaube Euch kein Wort-
nie mehr ein Wort- niemals

    alright... this song is about how the state "erases" the people they don't want...(anarchists,communists...) . "kopfschuss" means "headshot"... i'm too lazy to translate the whole song but i'll translate the chorus: "headshot - this was no suicide, this was murder. headshot - you've been lying since the first word. headshot - it was a terrible, the opposite of brave(...sorry i don't know the english word right now) murder. headshot - and i don't believe a single word you're saying." i hope this helps a little bit and i hope my english was not too bad!

    The song is esp about Wolfgang Grams, who got killed by german elite cops at the train station in Bad Kleinen (if u have the cd, theres a picture of a skull on rails).

    "Two policemen walked up to Grams, who was lying motionless. One bent over and shot him several times from close up. Then the second officer shot at Grams, but more at his stomach and legs. He shot several times."

    (taken from wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfgang_Grams )

Techno Ted
Audioslave
Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
