No Airbags for the Csu
Terrorgruppe Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Was nothing special going on
But south german wine brought comfort
They left the parliament building
Totally drunk
And fell asleep at the steering wheel
No Airbags for the CSU !
Big party meeting and speeches to yawn
Then they went home
In their brand new cars
And drove into a ditch
No Airbags for the CSU
And for the FDP and CDU.
For the SPD, too.
No Airbags for the CSU !
Election campaigns
Till early in the morning
Assisted by tens of booze
The way home was driven
Much more aggressive
The mayer ended up crashing into a tree
With champaign and cognac
We set the whole country free
With Bailys and Nightrain
For the german revolution
The lyrics to the song "No Airbags for the CSU" by Terrorgruppe mock the political party, CSU (Christian Social Union), and their irresponsible behavior. The song describes a typical meeting at the parliamentary building where nothing special is happening except for drunk politicians drinking south German wine, which brings comfort. The party members leave the building in a drunken state and drive their brand new cars on the way home. They end up falling asleep at the steering wheel, driving into a ditch, and crashing into a tree. The song emphasizes the fact that there were no airbags installed in their cars, which adds to their reckless behavior.
The lyrics go on to describe how during election campaigns, the politicians are assisted by tens of booze, and the way home was driven much more aggressively. The "mayer," who is assumed to be the mayor, ends up crashing into a tree. The song concludes with the line "With Bailys and Nightrain, for the German revolution," which is a satirical statement about how politicians think that they can set the whole country free through their drinking and reckless behavior.
The song highlights the irresponsible behavior of politicians and their disregard for safety, implying that they do not care about the well-being of their citizens. It also satirizes how they think that their drinking and partying can lead to a revolution. The lyrics are critical of the political process and expose the flaws within the system.
Line by Line Meaning
At the meeting
During the political gathering
Was nothing special going on
No noteworthy events or decisions were made
But south german wine brought comfort
Drinking helped them relax
They left the parliament building
The politicians departed from the meeting place
Totally drunk
They were heavily intoxicated
And fell asleep at the steering wheel
They dozed off while driving
No Airbags for the CSU !
Their political party will not provide protection if they get into an accident
Big party meeting and speeches to yawn
The event was long and boring
This is the reason why beer ran constantly
Alcohol consumption increased because of the tediousness
Then they went home
The politicians returned to their residences
In their brand new cars
They were driving expensive and recently purchased vehicles
And drove into a ditch
They crashed their cars off the road
No Airbags for the CSU
Their political party will not provide protection if they get into an accident
And for the FDP and CDU.
Other political parties will also not give protection
For the SPD, too.
Even their own party will not give them protection
No Airbags for the CSU !
Their political party will not provide protection if they get into an accident
Election campaigns
The period for gathering votes from the public
Till early in the morning
They worked throughout the night
Assisted by tens of booze
Drinking helped them get through the campaigning
The way home was driven
They had to drive home after the campaign efforts
Much more aggressive
They drove recklessly and violently
The mayer ended up crashing into a tree
A high-ranking politician got into an accident
With champaign and cognac
They celebrated with expensive alcoholic beverages
We set the whole country free
They feel that they have liberated Germany
With Bailys and Nightrain
They partied with different types of alcohol
For the german revolution
They believe that their actions will result in revolutionary change in Germany
