Delirium
Onkel Tom Angelripper Lyrics

The lyrics of Onkel Tom Angelripper's song Delirium touch upon themes of the search for meaning and the indulgence in alcohol as a means of coping with the struggles of life. The search for the purpose of life often leads to a loss of sense and rationale, as our everyday existence becomes unbearable. The poet suggests that alcohol is the only relief for the struggles we face in life, and hence we should raise high our heavy mugs and toast to the good life. In the pursuit of happiness, we must abandon the concerns of life and immerse ourselves in a world of drunkenness, devoid of pain and heartache.

The poet then goes on to talk about the antifa, a leftist political movement that stands for anti-fascism. He mocks them by saying that even they cannot escape the joys of alcohol, and they too will eventually succumb to its power. Despite their noble intentions and values, in the end, they are just like the rest of us, and even drinking alcohol can’t be held against them. The poet’s message is clear – in a world where everything is uncertain, alcohol is the sole constant that brings joy and comfort.

The third stanza is all about partying on a Friday night. Here, the poet beckons us to forget our worries and surrender ourselves to the pleasures of life. He invites us to drink and enjoy ourselves as much as possible in the present moment, without giving any thought to the consequences of our actions. He talks about being drunk on alcohol and oblivious to anyone who tries to stop us from enjoying ourselves. The poet invites us to forget the world and our problems for one night and experience life to the fullest.
