Now there is only that sinister brown belt
A strip of murdered Nature.
It seems to belong to another world
Every sign of humanity has been swept away
The woods and roads have vanished
Like chalk wiped from a board
Of the villages nothing remains but gray smears
Where stone walls have tumbled together.
A confused mass of troubled earth.
Columns of muddy smoke spurt up continually as
High explosives tear deeper into this ulcered area.

I fell from the sky
Or didn't I'

So the bullet could suceed

Or didn't I'
How did I die'
Or didn't I die at all'

We are back with a change of weather
Ein anderer Wind, ein neues Lied

We didn't die
We give you a different song
Okookookookooskrookookookookoo

Okookookookooskrookookookookoo
Difference makes the song
Outro (6:38)
We didn't die
We didn't die
We didn't die
We didn't die
