Tankard - Nation Over Nation Lyrics
Nation by nation
Like measles on the map
Sprouting in all directions
From Mother Russia's lap
The dream of independence
As the old orders crumble
But you must learn to see
Greatness! Raise the flag
Show your kids now proud it flies
This, my son, is God's own country
For its honour you must die
We are the chosen ones
This blood and soil is sacred
Nation over nation: myth of supremacy
People over people: chauvinist bigotry
Nation over nation: calls for hate, envy and war
Chaos and damnation: nation over nation
Power is the key
That's behind the rhetoric
Patriotic anesthetic
Blinded crowds fall for the trick
Parades and uniforms
Masking internal crisis
Afterming foreign threats
Nation over nation: myth of supremacy
People over people: chauvinist bigotry
Nation over nation: calls for hate, envy and war
Chaos and damnation: nation over nation
Ethnic manipulation
The curse of racial pride
Abuse by powermongers
Committing genocide
"Nation" is a scheme
Giving power to elites
Ideology concealing
Exploitation and deceit
We are the chosen ones
This blood and soil is sacred
We above the rest
Nation over nation: myth of supremacy
People over people: chauvinist bigotry
Nation over nation: calls for hate, envy and war
Chaos and damnation: nation over nation

do you know who did the cover?
I think it was Sebastian Krüeger
ya i love the art! do you know who does it?
metaldude you 're right, that's the point. if we only laugh then we become indifferent shithead hippies. if we 're only angry we get totally antisocial and maybe fascists. we combine them, we 're free, we 're metal, we love freedom for all.
