Schmutzfabrik [English translation]

The machinist doesn't look back

No time in the machine factory

Lots of dirt and grime and muscle pain

Lots of hot embers from the iron ore

And does it run well, the production?

Is fulfilling the plan true pay?

In the rhythm of the machines he's allowed to earn his money

In the factory of dirt the clock runs tick tick tick

And at the will of his strong arm the machines stand still

And at the will of his strong arm the machines stand still

Determination and some courage

The hot embers do him good

And at the will of his strong arm the machines stand still

And at the will of his strong arm the machines stand still

The machinist doesn't look back

No time in the machine factory

Lots of dirt and grime and muscle pain

Lots of hot embers from the iron ore

And does it run well, the production?

Is fulfilling the plan true pay?

In the rhythm of the machines he's allowed to earn his money

In the factory of dirt the clock runs tick tick tick

And at the will of his strong arm the machines stand still

And at the will of his strong arm the machines stand still
