One of the most important factors for the Tankcsapda fans is the quality of the lyrics, which has drawn a considerable fan base to the band. The first major success of the band came in 1992, when Tankcsapda released their first real studio LP, and the success story has been continuing ever since. The band have issued nine studio LPs, a live LP, a Best of and a compilation album. The sales records of the Tankcsapda LPs is extraordinary in the category of rock bands: the group has achieved golden records for most of their studio LPs (in Hungary a band is awarded with a golden record when the sales exceed 20.000 copies). One of the records even broke the 40.000-copy barrier!
The ever-widening fan base has responded exceptionally well to the records and attended the live shows in greater numbers as the years passed by. The group is well-represented in the media: their videos appear regularly in the different music shows on TV. One sure sign of success is the fact that the readers of the most popular rock magazine, Metal Hammer, has voted for Tankcsapda every year as the most popular domestic rock-group since 1996. In Jannuary 2012 Levente Molnár ala Cseresznye (guitar) quit the band.
There were a number of member changes in the line-up of the band during the past 18 years, but the essence remained the same, therefore more and more new faces and fans emerge around the band, together with the old fans.

Tankcsapda Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Mégse' a ruha teszi az embereket akkor
Lóvéér' meg a csajér' mér vereted magad
Hülyére ha nem is halálra
Közben a szemét techno-sztárok dalára ropja a
Buta tyúkod a pasikkal ma az egyikkel megy el holnap a másikkal
Tényleg annyira hülye hiába jó az eleje hogy mire a végére érsz
Rájössz hogy semennyi ész nem szorult bele jobb ha
(Jobb ha hazamész)
Minden reggel a munka délben hamburger a meki
Műanyaggal tömköd tele te meg fizetsz neki mer' a
A divat diktál ettél ittál itt tényleg majdnem minden olyan
Mint az eredeti de nincs mit szégyellni
Nézz végig magadon és ne sajnáld hogy az alkalmat
Megragadom arra hogy néha dalra fakadjak és
Arról énekeljek amit más a falra firkálgat hogy
A birkákat az orruknál fogva vezetik jobbra-balra
(a sok marha...)
Nyomtalanul nem múlik el az élet
Valaminek mindig történnie kell
Látod a szemem alatt már
Ott van néhány ránc én mégis
Az vagyok akinek engem látsz
The song "Akinek Látsz" by Hungarian punk rock band Tankcsapda, addresses the pressure in society to conform to certain standards of appearance and behavior. The lead singer demands to know what difference it makes if someone doesn't dress according to fashion or doesn't succumb to societal materialism, asking why people feel the need to prove themselves by spending so much money on material possessions. He criticizes the culture of mindless consumerism and warns against the trap of following trendsetting pop culture icons who promote trivial values. The chorus tells the listener to look inside themselves instead of worrying about external appearances, and to be proud of who they are.
The verses also talk about the mundane routine of everyday life, and how people often settle for less than they want, accepting cheap imitations instead of striving for what they truly desire. The song stresses the idea that people have the power to break free from these patterns and live life on their terms. The final lines of the song acknowledges that everyone is unique, and even though life may leave its mark on us, we should embrace ourselves as we are.
Overall, "Akinek Látsz" is a song about self-acceptance, individuality, and resisting social pressures that force us to conform to narrow standards of success and beauty.
