DDR |
I grew up living in a Welfare State |
Just the other side of the Brandenburg Gate |
It’s called East Germany everywhere |
But locally we know it as the DDR |
Waiting for tomorrow, living for today |
Living in the DDR |
Sitting on a time bomb, we don’t care |
We’re living for today |
Living in the DDR |
It’s a people’s paradise, you better believe it |
Every other week people dying to leave it |
Trucks full of Russkis carrying guns |
We’ll be first in the fire when the third war comes |
Waiting for tomorrow, living for today |
Living in the DDR |
Sitting on a time bomb, we don’t care |
We’re living for today |
Living in the DDR |
After the party when the Wall came down |
They closed all the factories in my home town |
Shops full of everything money can buy |
Skint and miserable, wishing that I |
Was still living in the DDR |
Waiting for tomorrow, living for today |
Living in the DDR |
Sitting on a time bomb, we don’t care |
We’re living for today |
Living in the DDR |
