KMFDM - Not In My Name Lyrics






All is quiet
Nothing left to hate
No signs of life to practice what you preach
Sorry comes too late
Play a little game called blind man's bluff
Add a cause to a bomb, then set it off
First part, bang, comes full stop
Returning us all back to dust

Regret, the bitter pill of defeat
It's ever only after, only after mistakes were made
The urge to blow apart and set it straight
It's either do it my way or the hard way
No matter what the consequence

Here's a little cash called hush-man money
Turn a blind eye, get gone and run
Shoot 'em all down
Smoke 'em all out
We got bigger toys and media clout

Not in my name
Better check yourself
Play your game somewhere else
A little sacrifice for your foe
Got your sticks, your stones
A place all your own
So much for unholy war

Not in my name
Never let yourself
Stand above the world yourself
You've no authority, you've got it wrong
You're rich and fat, what more could you get?
Damn you and your holy war

All is quiet
All is defeat

  6. B.... ....

    Too all these people saying Infected Mushroom GTFO. You are comparing a nub to a GOD. Kap' K will be here for another 30 years upon his 30 years already served. I am only 38 years old I know nothing.

  7. A.... ....

    Love it and I listen to every type of music why limit your musical experience to one genre and put your self in a box.

  8. B.... B....

    The Reich will claim the coming years.

  9. j.... j....

    FRONT 242 IS CRINGE

  10. V.... T....

    Great group

  11. D.... S....

    Practically all prayers in Islam are against Christians and Jews. It's not openly said, but all honest Muslims will tell you that it's against Kaffirs (non-muslims in arabic). Islam is a Sacred FASCIM similar to Nazism (Muhammed=Hitler as the prophet) or Communism with some prayers. To understand what is Islam, type "Brother Rachid English" or "Ambiguity" or "Political Islam" or "HAMED ABDEL-SAMAD english" or "Sacred Fascism" or "Apostate Prophet" or "zineb el rhazoui english" or "Abdul Sameer" or "Brigitte Gabriel" on youtube. Muslims are practicing "TAQIYA" (search on google). It's the art of deceiving non-Muslims, as long as they are in the majority by marrying 4 women and having many children. In final, they'll ask a seperate islamic state; the result of that is Pakistan. The goal is to have an islamic world. Islam is the same entity like in the film "Life origin unknown".

  12. T.... M....

    Love her voice

  13. T.... M....

    I love her voice, it is the best I've heard in a long time, and it is sexy as hell

  14. E.... F....

    great !

  15. C.... ....

    Best track on the album. This goes in my top ten KMFDM songs, even after "Hell Yeah", which has a couple contestant tracks.

  16. P.... ....

    This reminds me of the 5th level of Gunstar Heroes. Lol. Especially that one synth in the verse.

  17. F.... E....

    All is quiet

    F.... E....

    Big ups gotta sing along!

  18. K.... ....

    2:40 onwards blows my fucking mind!!

  19. a.... ....

    the intro in 0:32 reminds me of switchback by celldweller :)

    a.... ....

    This is a really late reply, but I totally hear that

    a.... ....

    What in the world- I know that song too and Agarthan's comment was from just under a day ago... synchronicity?

  20. O.... ....

    4 Riot Police officers didn't like the song...

    O.... ....

    Ofisil 3 police and a political witch channeling farts actually you can just smell it in the details lol

  21. M.... R....

    KMFDM is superior to anything and everything in electronic music. Period.

    M.... R....

    packed my shit up and I am out laters fkrs. kmfdm sucks

    M.... R....

    They surely are great but you're a bit biased

    M.... R....

    Boards of Canada and Infected Mushroom are pretty good. But KMFDM is better!

    M.... R....

    Yea, honestly after 20 years of listening to different music, I am now in the same boat with you, as I re listen to this marvelous music KMFDM brought us, they SUCK!!!!!! blasting this shit at 11

    M.... R....

    Don't forget Pigface...

  22. B.... ....

    Go kiss Skrillex's ass somewhere else, Michael.

  23. D.... ....

    If KMFDM is the world's greatest underground band, wouldn't that mean that it's fans are just really angry hipsters? ;)

    D.... ....

    lol i have no idea. i'm just found this band and i'm just a listener. i only like the music. lol

    D.... ....

    just shut up and listen

    D.... ....

    DrewskiTheLegend nope. nice try. fuck your ignorance. you don't get them.. you're onto something i guess i'll give you that. you don't see the full picture though.

    D.... ....

    Not this fan.

    D.... ....

    *sips monster agreeably*

  24. r.... ....

    Because they don't sound like everything else. :)

  25. M.... ....

    Why is this so damn accurate.

  26. W.... G....

    WoW forums

  27. K.... ....

    Rob Zombie got me into music overall. He's one of my biggest inspirations. But skrillex's version of sick bubblegum was better.

    K.... ....

    Fuck you.

  28. T.... ....

    Na, most of them are listening to rap country and other shit. Most of them don't have the most rounded musical taste though, I listen to this, death metal, several kinds of electronic, Progressive Rock, Progressive, and combinations of them.
    Also, Skrillex is a bad example of Dubstep, there is WAAAAAAAAAAY better stuff out there, just gotta look.

  29. W.... m....

    All the kids are listening to dumb step. That's why.

  30. a.... h....

    Once KMFDM gets into your head, they start to take control....

    a.... h....

    So true!!!!! 4/20/1999 ;)

    a.... h....

    Kontrol* lol.

    a.... h....

    fuck! that sucks.

  31. N.... 7....

    Fucking Excellent!

  32. T.... G....

    I love this song so damn much! Just listen to those uber wicked lyrics.

  33. P.... A....

    KMFDM SUCKS!

    P.... A....

    Primus fan?

  34. p.... ....

    Very new to KMFDM! It's fantastic to see how strong is he relation between the band and fans! Great to read and listen!

  35. c.... ....

    KMFDM sucks.

  36. P.... V....

    KMFDM SUCKS!!!

  37. C.... ....

    Wont find some kids talk about KMFDM :3 simple as that ! HUrrr

  38. T.... ....

    @avidpain Yes, baby!

  39. c.... ....

    It's simple, because Sascha doesn't want them to be. I believe KMFDM was more popular when Nihil was release, and Sascha didn't like that. To most, KMFDM has a very taboo sound and can sound rebellious or evil. It's just not something the average person would find appealing, which makes it that much better. Every KMFDM fan is unique and different from the norm. Also, due to the small fan base, KMFDM's fans are fiercely loyal. KMFDM Sucks.

  40. B.... D....

    The masses cannot handle the superpower of kmfdm

  41. T.... ....

    Because it's goddamn art and they don't sell themselves.

  42. z.... ....

    pre-chorus at 00:39 = <3

  43. z.... ....

    Because most people cannot understand them :)

  44. B.... ....

    cause people like you dont stand tha line...^^

  45. K.... ....

    Because society today likes this rap crap. Not this Energy!

  46. G.... ....

    Have anyone noticed whats now popular in music is that annoying upbeat happy crap that says drink, have sex, and party because its what Americans do. I don't believe that can be called talent

    G.... ....

    It's not, it's damage control. All the songs preaching degenerative distractions and using the same 4 chords coming out of the same massive companies? Yeah that seems natural.

  47. C.... ....

    Would you really want them to be? Enough people listen to them for them to pump out kick ass tunes. Fact that not everyone is listening to the music we love defines the fact that we are different and have something unique to us to share.

  48. K.... B....

    I don't deny media control and mainstream garbage, but neither that Gaga has talent. She may not be everyone's taste. Talent non the less.

    K.... B....

    I'm a big fan of Gaga. She's got some fucking pipes. I don't like how underground music fans act like they CAN'T like more popular shit

  49. S.... ....

    Because all mainstream is crap.

  50. R.... P....

    And KMFDM sucks.

  51. p.... ....

    Agreed...

  52. S.... ....

    Why is KMFDM not more popular ?
    Because most people are sheep. Would rather go along with the mainstream BS

    S.... ....

    coz KMFDM sucks

    S.... ....

    @Arthur G Agreed. There are well-produced and catchy.

  53. S.... ....

    Because the majority of mainstream music is absolute shit, I'd prefer it be secluded

  54. S.... ....

    Its the design

  55. M.... G....

    it's called flouride in the water and execs pushing gaga, britney, rihana, candyman and sparechange. the politicians who control execs at mtv don't want us informed so they 'censor by omission', like how espn won't even have author brian tuohy on to make fun of him since brian's message of the superbowls and other sports being FIXED for ratings will get out there.

  56. M.... ....

    Legendary!

  57. M.... ....

    Oh hell yeah the whole of youtube is better for this!

  58. b.... ....

    this song inspired my latest novel. when I heard it, I pictured this sprawling city of the future, which looked alot like something you might see in an anime movie.

  59. s.... ....

    they don't find you, you find them

  60. s.... ....

    because they are to great

  61. R.... ....

    good music is god given, knowing good music is god given..

    god.. loves some of us. yes he does.

  62. R.... ....

    @evilmonkeymonster shh the last thing we want is for those mainstream music destroyers to hear us

  63. T.... ....

    minus the vocals this makes me think of c&c red alert music

  64. s.... ....

    @evilmonkeymonster cause KMFDM sucks!

  65. T.... h....

    @pinkthunderwonder o: cause youtubes a mean crackah

  66. I.... ....

    @TROLLERSDELIGHT Bands that have to fight to keep enough fans put more effort into their music. You know what happens with the quality of the music when bands try to appeal to a broader public (where there are many idiots and people without any taste), right? KMFDM are still there after 26 years, Joston Boobor will be forgotten after - hopefully - after a few. This is what counts.

  67. s.... e....

    @TROLLERSDELIGHT not really, its just that when people talk about the harder music and i mention kmfdm they have no clue what im talking about, and im not saying i want them on the radio, i just want them to have a bit more publicity.

  68. s.... e....

    why is
    KMFDM not more popular?

  69. T.... ....

    Thanks for putting this up again after the last one was removed.
