In beginning man lived on trees
But since then he has barely changed
He might walk upright and he flies through space but he is still in Neandertal
The man of today, who faxes. His Opel Manta is freshly waxed
But if there's a problem somewhere, he acts like he always used to
In a prehistorical act of revenge he screams: "An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth!
And if you're not willing, you'll have a problem."
And once again we are in Neandertal
Welcome to Neandertal, welcome, welcome
Welcome to Neandertal, the Yeti hits Rübezahl
From time immemorial things are build up to destory them later again
Out of blood and debris and after every war
The economy rises up like the phoenix from the ashes. Humanism and human ethics
Make no money, so we don't need them as well
Socrates, Plato, Hegel and Kant were never named at the stock market
Full of sympathy homo sapiens watches the fast of the Kurds in Arabia
Really close on TV, but nobody tries to intervene
I fear there's no fossil oil to be found there
Welcome to Neandertal, welcome, welcome
Welcome to Neandertal, the Yeti hits Rübezahl
See, there inside of the TV, there lies a small child
See, it has no feet anymore, go, change the channel, do it fast
Nobody can watch this without losing one's appetite
And donation, they do not have any effect, it will die anyways
Welcome to Neandertal, welcome, welcome
Welcome to Neandertal, the Yeti hits him one more time
The second millenium comes to an end
The walls have fallen and we've got our turnabout
Europe is free, Europe is reborn, save for the small Balkan fight
Even discipline comes back into place
In Germany an asylum home is burning. Despite microchip and megabyte:
We've come back to the good old times again!
Welcome to Neandertal, welcome, welcome
Welcome to Neandertal, where I hit you on the head
Welcome to Neandertal, welcome, welcome
Welcome to Neandertal, unless you are in the superior number
