Hartgeld [English translation]
Hartgeld [English translation]
They're shuffling with tie, suitcase and suit
With chilled hysteria to departure
In way too big shoes
Marked by the woken-up straight look
Ready for the next sale-out
Jovial characters
Mechanics of power
Time to corrupt, everything is for sale
Mechanics of power
Always have got the right banknote
Nothing's more valuable than
Hard cash, how much does the rest of the world cost
Long live the fast coin
Hard cash, the east has been counted
Capital in full speed
Represented by men off the peg
Uniformly hardened, they don't doubt for long
Fattened emotion
Rubbing bundles under your nose
Just not letting anyone reflect
Calculus cold as ice
Western manner
They're pulling unjust duels, each time faster
Western manner
Golden riders are taking everything in gallop
Nothing's more valuable than
Hard cash, how much does the rest of the world cost
Long live the fast coin
Hard cash, the east has been counted
Capital in full speed
Time is money, the goal has been passed
No morals now
Trained for the brave new world
Surrendered for capital
But please no sentiment
Hard cash, nothing in its way anymore
Borders are run over
Hard cash, how much does the world cost
All in its highest gear
