War

[No lyrics]

We're leaving together
But still it's farewell
And maybe we'll come back to earth, who can tell?
I guess there's no one to blame
We're leaving proud
Will things ever be the same again

IT'S THE FINAL COUNTDOWN!

We're heading for Mars
And still we stand tall
Coz maybe they've seen us
And welcome us all
With so many light years to go
And things to be found
We're sure we'll all miss her so

IT'S THE FINAL COUNTDOWN!

. . .


Do you remember what the draft-man said:
"Nothing to do all day but stay in bed"

You're in the army now
In the army now

You'll be the hero of the neighbourhood
Nobody knows that you left for good

In the army now
Smiling faces on the way to hell
But once you get there no one gives a damn

In the army now

Handgrenades flying over your head
Missiles flying over your head
If you want to survive, get out of bed

In the army now
Just ring out in the dead of the night
The sergeant called: "Stand up and fight!"

You're in the army now
In the army now

You get orders how to shoot on sight
Got the fingers on the trigger
But it don't seem right

You're in the army now
In the army now

Night is falling and you just can't see
Is this illusion or reality?

In the army now
Is this illusion or reality?

. . .


Dogs of war and man of hate
With no cause we don't discriminate
Discovery is to be disowned
Our currency is flesh and bone
Hell opened and put on sale
Gather 'round and haggle
For hard cash we will lie and deceive
Even our masters don't know the web we weave

One world, it's a battle-ground
One world and we will smash it down

Invisible transfers and long-distance calls
Hollow laughter in marble halls
Steps have been taken
A silent roar has unleashed the dogs of war
You can't stop what has begun
Signed, sealed, they deliver oblivion
We all have a dark side, to say the least
And dealing in death is the nature of the beast

One world, it's a battle-ground
One world and they smashed it down

The dogs of war don't negotiate
The dogs of war won't capitulate
They will take and you will give
And you must die so that they may live
You can knock at any door
But wherever you go, you know they've been there before
Well, winners can lose and things can get strained
But whatever you change, you know the dogs remain

One world, it's a battle-ground
One world, we are going to smash it down
One world, it's a battle-ground
One world, we are going to smash it down

Unsere Kleidung ist so schwarz

Unsere Stiefel sind so schön

Links den roten Blitz

Rechts den schwarzen Stern

Unsere Schreie sind so laut

Unser Tanz ist so wild

Ein neuer böser Tanz

Alle gegen alle

Alle gegen alle


Unser Tanz ist so wild
Unsere Schreie sind so laut
Links den roten Blitz
Rechts den schwarzen Stern

Ein neuer böser Tanz
Alle gegen alle

Unser Tanz ist so wild
Alle gegen alle

Unsere Schreie sind so laut

Unser Tanz ist so wild

Alle gegen alle

In the year 2525
If man is still alive
If woman can survive, they may find

In the year 1994
War goes on just like before
War goes on, it never ends
War brings bigger dividends

In the year 1995
Brave new world is born to die
From total damage to damage limitation
Fear is the key to defend the nation

In the year 1996
There is no need for politics
Seeing life with unseeing eyes
Seeing man see through the disguise

In the year 1997
The boil bursts in the face of Heaven
Dragon tears washed away thy youth
Wash thy hands of eternal truth

In the year 1998
Why shut the door of the Open Gate
Rivers of people flow like blood
New race rises from the mud

In the year 1999
War destroys the last sky-line
A flaming cross appears in the sky
Man bows down as the bullets fly

Now it's been 2000 years
Man has cried a million tears
For what he never knew
Now man's reign is through
But through eternal night
The twinkling of starlight
So very far away
Maybe it's only yesterday

In the year 2525
If man is still alive
If woman can survive
We survive

In the year 3535
