(Fernsehen) Nur Mut
The movie's on once again
The one I can't really stand to watch anymore
And as soon as that one's over
The next rubbish is about to begin
I switch the channel and I hope
That no commercials come across my way
But I think that's just a pie in the sky
Whatever - I'm getting used to it...
Refrain
This television - gets you addicted
Tears you out of the real world
Television - Non-stop commercials
What do I pay my money for?
Switch the channels up and down
Watching telly 'til late night
A hundred channels available to chose from
Who's invention was all this?
Sex, violence and drug movies
Broadcast during high peak-time
Children can watch all this
Until the kid starts screaming:
A lot's gonna happen - nothing stays the way it was before... (1)
Refrain
Rambo taken as an example
The massacre becomes a game
They all just want to reach the top of the hill
Nothing else does count
This illusion will find an end soon
It can't go on like this anymore
We have good reasons to defend ourselves
Because our future is most important
Refrain
