When freedom came
She stabbed a spur into our flank
Aha
And so we don't want to run on
Everyone would rather stand to the side
Hidden in a shade, behind a protective barrier
Aha
Like they're afraid of running
When freedom came
No one shook her hand
We're world champions in fumbling about
We're trying to work out what the lady wants
We've waited for her for so long
Now she just dallies and won't go through with it
She has a sweet mind
They let her get away
When freedom came
She helped us off the bridle and the reins
Aha
And now we're like castrates
Every one of us wants back into the reins
To go back, before he gets lost
Aha
Wandering down this track
When freedom came
No one shook her hand
We're no tools
We just don't want the lady here
We've waited for her for so long
Now she tries to put out what doesn't burn
We want to puke and tell her
To just piss off
Nananaj nanananananaj
Because for the last 40 years
We've been a herd of slaves
We've lived in a stable
Where everyone stands for his own
We want only a warm cell and a bit of fodder
Nananaj nanananananaj
Because for the last 40 years
We've been a herd of slaves
Without the carrot and the stick*
Our life is worthless
What we fear the most is progress
What we fear the most is progress
When freedom came
It took the blinders we've had on our eyes
Aha
With that, she managed to piss off everyone
Now, we see filth everywhere
Filth that every creature would die in
Aha
And that stops being funny really quickly
When freedom came
No one shook her hand
Cause it's clear to everyone
What that viper is preparing for us
We've waited for her for so long
Now she probably wants to piss us off
And the public wants revenge
It's cool to beat her up
Nananaj nanananananaj
Because for the last 40 years
We've been a herd of slaves
We've lived in a stable
Where everyone stands for his own
We want only a warm cell and a bit of fodder
Nananaj nanananananaj
Because for the last 40 years
We've been a herd of slaves
Without the carrot and the stick*
Our life is worthless
What we fear the most is progress
What we fear the most is progress
When freedom came
She got taken to the side, right up to the borders
Aha
Even when she wanted to defend herself
What she took, she should pay back
So she'll get over those thieving ambitions
Aha
Everyone from the village had his way with her
When freedom run off crying
No one had anything more to say
That she always wanted to steal something from us
And so the trap simply closed shut
She was a thieving swine
And we don't miss her
Despite those sweet promises
We're better off without her
Nananaj nanananananaj
Because for the last 40 years
We've been a herd of slaves
We've lived in a stable
Where everyone stands for his own
We want only a warm cell and a bit of fodder
Nananaj nanananananaj
Because for the last 40 years
We've been a herd of slaves
Without the carrot and the stick*
Our life is worthless
What we fear the most is progress
Nananaj nanananananaj
What we fear the most is progress
Nananaj nanananananaj
What we fear the most is progress
