Strasbourg

歌詞

I'll meet you in West Germany October 1983 I know the freedom was a lie and you husband was a spy You say that words are impotent But they can help us pay the rent I knew for sure there was nothing left Except the vodka on your breath We meet in Strasbourg In Strasbourg Dann sind wir HeldenWe meet in Strasbourg The courage that your father plucked From inside a cattle truck Will help us fix the exit polls Our children must have rock'n'roll Surveillance cameras captured dawn Breaking on the autobahn I knew for sure our chance was blown When rifles made you feel at home We meet in Strasbourg In Strasbourg Dann sind wir Helden We meet in Strasbourg We meet in Strasbourg In Strasbourg Dann sind wir Helden We meet in Strasbourg Eins, zwei, drei, vier deas can change the government But they never listen to our arguments On TV our friends smashed cement And pulled down the bastards monuments I went outside for a cigarette I could see things I had tried to forget The news showed us who we had left And I could smell the vodka on your breath
