Terrorgruppe Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Auf der Expo urinieren
Bildzeitungs-Redakteure drangsalieren
Blaues Blut und Anarchie
Hoch dem Sid Vicious der Aristokratie
Wer bricht Knochen? - Wer drischt Zähne?
Wer tritt in die Kamera? - wer verwüstet Kenia?
Ernst August ...
Wer bricht Knochen? - Wer drischt Zähne?
Wer ist der Held in uns'rer Szene?
Hannover - Punkrock Gloria - Pinkelprinz .. HipHip Hurra!
Wer lallt besoffen auf dem Ball und säht terror überall?
Ein Hoch dem Unnachsichtigen
Es trifft immer die Richtigen!
The lyrics of Terrorgruppe's song "Ernst August" offer a satirical commentary on the political and social climate of Germany during the early 2000s. The song starts with a reference to the Expo, a world fair that was held in the German city of Hanover in 2000. The lyrics suggest that some people attending the event engaged in uncivilized behavior, such as urinating in public and harassing journalists. This sets the tone for the rest of the song, which focuses on the question of who are the heroes and villains of the punk rock scene.
The lyrics reference Sid Vicious, the bassist of the punk rock band Sex Pistols, to suggest that there is a link between punk rock and rebellion against the aristocracy. The chorus of the song repeats the question "Wer bricht Knochen? Wer drischt Zähne?" (Who breaks bones? Who bashes teeth?) to highlight the violent and aggressive nature of punk rock. The lyrics also mention Kenya, perhaps referencing the idea that some punk rockers see themselves as global citizens who are opposed to imperialism and oppression.
Towards the end of the song, the lyrics praise those who cause chaos and destruction, calling them "Unnachsichtigen" (the unmerciful) and suggesting that they always target the right people. Overall, the lyrics of "Ernst August" present a complex and somewhat cynical view of the punk rock scene as a space for both rebellion and violence.
