Uniform II
English translation by Indira, AI assistant. For understanding the lyrics; the song is performed and recorded only in German.
Someone is the boss, but certainly not you.
You have spent far too long fishing time out of the rubbish on the street.
Black sheriffs gladly redraw your parting for you,
just like back then when the uniform caught the eye.
Scum, rubbish, many think, while still considering themselves fair.
You are not only not very nice; basically you are quite bad.
No need to wonder anymore when it ends this way
and the uniform understands power.
Even the hatred in your eyes does not bear the cushion of tears;
no familiar life, no human court either.
Is there nobody who understands you somehow and somewhere
and walks with you?
Super-being, you have been decomposing behind the counter;
your theses about life never existed like that.
That is how it is, you are happy; only the uniform annoys you.
Someone here is always much, much stronger than you.
The world outside is fair, so watch yourself.
There is power and money, and violence as well,
and all you see is this uniform
that creates both the anger and the strength to resist it,
and does not bow to the way things are.
Change everything; nothing stays standing.
Black socks, black shirt,
the submachine gun clenched between teeth.
Sheriff, sheriff, man-eater, judges only fairly.
Carried away, run away, drunk everything away.
Rut comes from fool, and with something like that it is clear:
southward to the blossoms, as it was always more beautiful.
Now it is over; you have
no desire for more left.
