Lyrics Ludwigshafen - Rational Youth

Ludwigshafen

In 1982
Some time before the fall
We lived on electricity
And we danced on the Berlin Wall
Now those days are gone
And this world is cold
There’s only one place
Where I want to be
Gone to Ludwigshafen
That’s the only thing that’s left
Gone to Ludwigshafen
And get a job at BASF
Ludwigshafen!
We’re gonna find a little
Or maybe just
And we’ll look out through our window at night
And just watch those factory lights shimmer
We’ll leave this world behind us
And we’ll live until the end of time
With divine and the chemical princess
On the banks of the dirty old
Gone to Ludwigshafen
That’s the only thing that’s left
Gone to Ludwigshafen
And get a job at BASF
Ludwigshafen!
Ludwigshafen
Gone to Ludwigshafen
'Cause that’s the only thing that’s left
Gonna move to Ludwigshafen
And maybe get a job at BASF
