1. The Meaning of Life

It's such a mystery
Can someone tell me
the meaning of life?
It's really killing me
Who's got the rap on
the meaning of life?
Kama Sutra, Bible and Koran -
no answer, man
Not a clue from Marx to Socrates -
I'm on my knees
Gotta find it in my own
Sober, drunk or maybe stoned
Grow myself a wisdom tooth
Ask him, if he knows the truth
A perfect body chosen
To host the aging brain
Restricted access only
High asset clientele
No more fear of senility and death
We sell eternity
Take control of destiny
Transplant complexes often
Selections of young flesh
To those who seek a new life
To live their old life in
Escape your judgement day -
invest in time
(Chorus)
(Solo: Harris)
Hi-tech reincarnation
The cult of science reigns
Payment for paradise is
Not prayer, just currency
Buy life! We'll save you from mortality
Don't fall for those who say:
Madness lies in eternity
Death must submit to finance
He dwells among the slaves
Control is universal
The end of history
But is eternal life heaven or Hell




2. Mercenary

They wanna kill, the mercenary comes to you
Now you have to, you really have to run away

Running, running away ! Fleeing, fleeing fastly !

They are cruel, get money to kill you
Their commanders are satisfied if you die

Mercenary - be careful !
Mercenary - careful !
Carefully, carefully, the mercenary, the mercenary

They are happy, when they got much money now
All the people afraid of their cruelty

Running, running away ! Fleeing, fleeing fastly !

In a hard fight many bombs are falling down
You are dying, the punishment is right oh yeah

Mercenary - be careful !
Mercenary - careful !
Carefully, carefully, the mercenary, the mercenary

They wanna kill, the mercenary comes to you
Now you have to, you really have to run away

Running, running away ! Fleeing, fleeing fastly !

They are cruel, get money to kill you
Their commanders are satisfied if you die

Mercenary - be careful !
Mercenary - careful !
Carefully, carefully, the mercenary, the mercenary

Mercenary - be careful !
Mercenary - careful !
Carefully, carefully, the mercenary, the mercenary




3. Beermuda

I'm feeling low, to much frustration
I've gotta get away
Do not want to stay
in this boring place
Getting crazier day by day
I see in my imagination
The place I want to go
An island for away, unbeknown to most
Where it's warm and
the beer streams flow
Sandy beaches and a deep blue ocean
The water tastes like premium brew
Nobody works, it's against the law
Gorgeous woman waiting there for you
Easy living makes me feel alright
This paradise is mine tonight
(Chorus 1)
I wanna go to Beermuda
No more sober life without fun
I wanna move to Beermuda
I wanna live in Beermuda
Live it up in the tropical sun
I wanna go to Beermuda
The trees are full
of snacks and sixpacks
And they don't cost a dime
There's just a single rule: No sobriety
(Solo: Axel)
Nobody thinks about tomorrow
The good times never stop
Under the summer sky,
getting really high
We'll go on drinking 'til we drop
This is life as it always should be
Noone could find a better place
Too bad it can't be reality
I'm just dreaming, it's a fantasy
Easy living makes we feel alright
This paradise is mine tonight
(Chorus)
(Solo: Andy)
I see in my imagination
The place I want to go
An island far away
Waking up from my crazy daydream
Brew in my hand, hey, where am I?
Can it be true that I'm really here
On Beermuda with a girl and a beer
Easy living makes me feel alright
This paradise is mine for life
(Chorus 1)
I'm gonna stay in Beermuda
No more sober life without fun
I gonna live in Beermuda
I'm gonna stay in Beermuda
Live it up in the tropical sun
I gonna live in Beermuda
I'm gonna stay in Beermuda
No more sober life without fun
I'm gonna live in Beermuda




4. Total Addiction

You need your drugs -
your coke your crack your pills
Blurring your money in a frenzied manner
For a losing cause that cost your life
You're such a waste - not reason, no will to live
Strung out at home for days and weeks
The daze and gloom witch stuff out your life
Let's fight! Kick it man! It sin your mind!
Shot it up! Short it up! Live it up for you
Total addiction
Smoke it up! Take it up! Live it up for you
Total addiction
Don't need your drugs -
just drink some beer and mosh
It's doesn't cost much for a case of beer
As it does for a quarter or gram of cane
Listen to Tankard - you need a doze of thrash
A total addiction to those music and beer
It's reason enough to quit your drugs
Solo:Axel Solo:Andy




5. Poison

She's got a look that knocking you down
Her husband is so angry kicks her in the teeth
He want to kill, he wants to poison
Poison - he's a maniac
Poison poison
Fuckin' little worms are creeping in her face
The man gets crazy and he must kick her down
(Repeat 2nd verse)
Smash the axe into her fuckin' ugly face
The blood is running out of her eyes
(Repeat 2nd verse)




6. We Are Us

You're such a down in
your wig and your tights
You look so silly, silly tonight
Trying to be like your favorite star
Why don't you stay
just the way that you are
Be you, don't try living a lie
We too are true! Never a lie
We are true
(Chorus)
Who are you? We are us!
Be a man you can trust
Being who you are is
the key to yourself
Who are you? We are us!
What is the sense of a second hang life
That's no solution - it's a disguise
Just set your own personality free
Look in the mirror
and find your identity
(Repeat 2nd verse)
(Chorus)
(Solo: Axel, Andy)
Don't pretend that
you're someone you're not
Pride in yourself,man, that means a lot
Stick to your guns,
do what you can do best
And you will find that's
the best way to have success
(Repeat 2nd verse)
(Chorus)
I can't rest 'til I've discovered why -
we live and die
Desperation's driving me insane -
pain in my brain
(Chorus)
It's such a mystery
What is the key to
the meaning of life?
I have to be sure
What are we living for?
It's such a mystery
But I'll uncover the meaning of life
What's the use of fighting for rebirth-
What is it worth?
Born to live the dreams of our parents-
What is the sense?
If your life is from above
There's no need for making love
Be the best that you can be
Working for the family
A weekend escape is only fantasy -
Life isn't free
So I work in hopes I'll get away -
Maybe one day
(Chorus)
(Solo: Axel, Andy)
Sometimes I think that life's a game -
But who's to blame?
Or is life for love and charity? -
I disagree
Life is just a money grab
Taking all that's to be had
I can never be complete
Everybody wants a piece
Will I ever find some happiness? -
Before my death
But what if there's an afterlife -
In Paradise?
(Chorus)
The end of the mystery
Think for yourself




7. Maniac Forces

Bombs of destruction threaten our world
They say: We need'em for defending
Millions of citizen must
hunger for their insanity
Wiping out our whole planet
Maniac forces
Russians and Americans accuse each other
Of having more bombs than the other one
We live in an uncertain world
Be afraid of the beginning of World War 3
Maniac forces




8. Live to Dive

Climb on the boxes... Live to dive!
Leap into masses of sweat, beer and noise
The crazy jumper... Live to dive
Aching and hurting, but he'll never stop
You wanna hear about a freak?
A nut who dives, but not in the sea
A King Kong act, he climbs the amps
Four meter jump, cracks jokes and his bones
(Chorus)
He drives his Benz across the roads
At rocket speed, through fog and on ice
Popping pills to stay awake
A kamikaze! He's death on four wheels
(Chorus)
(Solo: Harris, Andy)
Part of a band, the worst there is
Can't even play those strings that make noise
He really thinks he's A.O.K.
Feels like a star, that guy is bad news
(Chorus)




9. Chemical Invasion

STOP THE CHEMICAL INVASION
German beer's among the finest
The beer is pure and chemical free
A standard set which we are proud of
A standard met by no other land
Purity laws and chemical free
No body pollution - no change!
Preservatives shall soon be common
And the beer will be bastardized
Chemical invasion
Fight for your right to drink pure beer
Chemical invasion
It's your right the time is here
Make a stand and try to fight it
They'll poison us with import beer
'Cause German beer - it is the purest
And there's no room for chemical here
Purity laws and chemical free
No body pollution - no change!
No loss for us - refuse to buy it
We'll rather keep our bodies clean




10. The Morning After

Can this be or am I dreaming?
What a mess!
Woke up drunk lying on the floor
This cannot be, my place is trashed
Broken bottles everywhere
Vomit oozing down the stairs
I asked myself how did this happen
Don't recall
Why the nasty, pounding headache?
I need relief, where's the tylenol
Refrain:
Lying in my bed! With a swollen head!
What did I do? I always regret
the morning after!

Morning's passed,now I think I remember
Holy shit!
Ugly bitch playing with my member
Mutated sow with an extra tit
Senseless ruckus late at night
That's when we began to fight
Four a.m. and we were hungry
Cooked some food
Ate until the fridge was empty
Then they left, all their bellies full
Refrain
Solo: Axel, Andy
Now my brain feels like mashed potatoes
Getting sick
I swear to kick this nasty habit
And never drink for ever more
Headache ceases, all is fine
Getting thirsty, where's the wine?
I cannot stop though I'm seeing double
Sloshed again
I know it's sad but I really need it
Cause alcohol is my only friend
Refrain
Lying in my bed! With a swollen head!
What did I do?
Lying in my bed! With a swollen head!
What did I do? I always regret
the morning after!




11. Space Beer

Read in the morning paper
They're shooting up another satellite
Experiment on the final frontier
To create the ultimate beer
Precious yeast spinning in orbit
Unrestrained gravity fades
Nobody knows what this brew will be
A magic potion? Chemistry?
Everybody loves the new beer
So good you want to
drink it day in night
It's better that and Pils, any Ex
Makes you feel like really good sex
If you're sick, don't fear the doctor
'Cos he has wonderful news:
a case of Beer will replace the pills
A drink of healing cures your ills
A new idea - great innovation
Future beer - it's a sensation
(Chorus)
Chuck it down, tap another barrel
Magic potion out of space
Chuck it down, it's a drinker's heaven
Live it up and drink this beer
Space beer! Space beer!
Space beer - this is what I like
Space beer -it tastes alright
If you stick to drinking Space beer
Hangovers -
headaches will be in the past
The Sci-Fi-booze makes
you healthy and wise
Your dick and brain will grow in size
If you're bald,
it'll make your hair grow




12. Alcohol / Puke / Mon Cheri / Wonderful Life (Medley)




13. (Empty) Tankard

Drinking and fucking through the whole night long
Partying with friends 'til fucking dawn
Let's go thrashin' and stagedivin'
Feel the power and sound again
We want to drink some fucking beer,
we want to drink some whiskey
Frankfurt's thrashers will rule tonight
They're well known for their bloody fight
Wodka and Cognac are our leaders
We've the best, we fuck the fuckin' rest
Empty Tankard
We have come to slamdance tonight
Bangin' and bleedin' till the fuckin' end
Playing fast and running free
Stand up maniacs, you have to fight
We want to drink some fucking beer,
we want to drink some whiskey
Liver is broken down so bloody hard
I keep on drinking until I drop
Bang your head against the fuckin' wall
Show the damned whimps who we are
Empty Tankard
