[Music & Lyrics: P. Wagner]
And did they teach you love?
Yes, they did but poor and hidden.
And did they teach you
death?
Yes, they did but just a part of it.
What does that mean, a part of it?
It means that they taught us how to
kill
They taught it and they practised it
They never told us how to die
Death's place in life and how to face it,
See how sad
they end their lives...
And if I ask these questions
What would you say if the answer's given the same time?
And if you know
these questions
Why can't you see that it's more than just a state of mind?
And did they teach to hate?
Yes, they taught it
and they stirred it
On the so-called enemy
Not on the own misery.
What did they do with their own lives?
They only did
what you'd expect
After the lessons they had had,
They've never seen the other way
The might freedom in their minds
They will
never reach their size.
And if I ask these questions
What would you say if the answer's given the same time?
And if you know
these questions
Why can't you see that it's more than just a state of mind?
In a way we're data banks
Informations
collectors
And all worse that we contend
Is a false program inside
We just need to get it right
Check it out what you have
learned.
And you will learn to love
You will even learn to die
And you will learn 'bout hate
In a way that is
meant.
And you will ask these questions...
