Ein ganzes Land kniet nieder
Und sagt "Es tut uns Leid!"
Wir geben zu, wir haben den Krieg verloren
Das das ist jetzt vorbei
Uns ist klar, wir müssen büßen
Damit Ihr uns verzeiht
Die Nation wird ausgewürfelt
Und dann durch zwei geteilt
Die einen Saufen Coca Cola
Die anderen fressen Mauerstein
Hier feiert man Wirtschaftswunder
Und da den 1. Mai
Doch jeden Tag besucht uns
Derselbe Parasit
Alle tragen auf ihren Schultern
Den Ballast der Republik
Die alten Panzer sind verrostet
Wir sind wieder vereint
Heute quälen uns noch mehr Sorgen
Die Kohle wird verheiz
Wir haben keine Zeit mehr
Für Politik und Religion
Wenn wir an Götter glauben
Dann tragen sie Trikots
Doch jeden Tag besucht uns
Derselbe Parasit
Im Kopf und auf den Schultern
Den Ballast der Republik
Es ist wie Pech, das an uns klebt
Der Ballast der Republik
In Clubs und auf den Straßen
Alle haben es so satt
Man tanzt bis in den Morgen
Doch die Sorgen fallen nicht ab
Alle scheiben hass
Es ist der alter Parasit
Im Kopf und auf den Schultern
Der Ballast der Republik
