We are the dispatchers

Step up, we are the dispatchers!
Step, logistics proletariat!
Ding-Dong, always deliver, never wait,
nobody there, message in, stairs down!
 
Delivering through the blizzard on demand, bikinis from Zalando.
Even if I do not look like this, I live in a Ford Transit.
 
Packages heavy, packages big, at least not homeless.
No minimum wage, no break time, trapped in self-employment!
 
Step up, we are the dispatchers!
Step, logistics proletariat!
Ding-Dong, always deliver, never wait,
nobody there, message in, stairs down!
 
I never complain that work is crap, even if I'm employed with a time limit.
When sushi rings at the front door, people are exploited!
 
My barrack cold, my location will be tracked via app!
Freed from the protection of labor law, trapped in self-employment!
 
Step up, we are the dispatchers!
Step, logistics proletariat!
Ding-Dong, always deliver, never wait,
nobody there, message in, stairs down!
 
What is separating rover from sub-sub-sub-sub-entrepreneur?
He is not human, he is not an animal. No, he is a parcel courier.
 
I am not human, I am not an animal. No, I am a parcel courier.
I am not human, I am not an animal. No, I am a parcel courier.
 
Step up, we are the dispatchers!
Step, logistics proletariat!
Ding-Dong, always deliver, never wait,
nobody there, message in, stairs down!
 

Let's get into the fight

Let's get into the fight, the fight!
We were born for the fight
Let's get into the fight, the fight!
We are ready for the fight
We swore it to Karl Liebknecht
We give our hand to Rosa Luxemburg
 
We do not fear, no, we don't,
The thunder of the cannons
We do not fear, no, we don't,
The Noske police (other version: the green police)
We lost Karl Liebknecht
Rosa Luxemburg died at murderers' hands.
 
There stands a man, a man
As steady as an oak
Surely, surely
He lived through many storms
Maybe he will be a corpse by tomorrow already
Just like it happens to so many freedom fighters.
 
Let's get into the fight, the fight!
We were born for the fight
Let's get into the fight, the fight!
We are ready for the fight
We swore it to Karl Liebknecht
We give our hand to Rosa Luxemburg
 

The Red Banner

Forward you working people, you must not yield!
The red banner, that is your symbol!
Forward with fresh courage on new tracks,
The red banners flutter you forward!
 
[Refrain:]
Blood red banners greet the sunlight,
Blood red banners call for accountability
Blood red banners will be the victors!
The carry new hope in to the world.
(Lenin lives! Destroy fascism!)
 
Y'all the exploited, from desperation surrounded
Y'all should take up the red banner!
Y'all proletarian, be encouraged,
the red banners, pull y'all forward.
 
[Refrain]
 
In the mine shaft, in the workshop, where everyone works
The red banner is your weapon!
Of the future's rich happiness, you can feel it
The red banners flutter you forward!
 
[Refrain]
 
The new age will overcome hatred
The red banner will bring peace.
Form the minions to free humans
The red banners flutter you forward.
 

Soon, all too soon

Alone out in the forest there blooms a little red flower
Soon, all too soon I shall be dead
Soon, all too soon
 
Somewhere there flies a little piece of lead
Which shall take my cares away from me
For me, it matters not whether that comes today or tomorrow
 
Far off, where the valley dips down, there dig three spades
They dig a cool grave, one for a soldier
 
Off beneath the twilight, somewhere in a small town
A girl sits alone in a room, and cries
 
There blooms a little red flower all alone in the forest
Soon, so very soon I shall be dead
Soon, all too soon
 

Ravensburger homelandsong

1. My Ravensburg in Swabia,
as you lie so beautiful on the Schussen's beach,
the fruit tree's blossom, the vine's leaf
embrace you, you beautiful city.
In front of you laughs a friendly valley,
Greetings a thousand times,
a thousand times!
 
2. The alpine giants look in,
to you with bright silver shine,
can't take their eyes off of you(1),
you beautiful swabian city.
You pearl in the Schussental,
greetings a thousand times,
a thousand times!
 
3.Your towers' greeting reaches widely,
full of grace at the Veitsburg's pedestal,
you rest full of glamour in May's glory,
with longing i have thought of you.
Out in the wide world a thousand times,
my Ravensburg in the Schussental,
in the Schussental!
 
4. If i get seized by the hand of Death
faraway from you in foreign land,
i wish just only this:
O, let me be burried
- this i beg of you this day a thousand times -
In Ravensburg in the Schussental,
in the Schussental!
 

When all the sweet fountains are flowing

Versions: #2
When all the sweet fountains are flowing
A man must drink
If I’m not allowed to call my darling
Ooh, I'll wave at her
If I’m not allowed to call my darling
Ju ja, (not) allowed to call
Ooh, I'll wave at her
 
Yes, a little wink of the eye
And a little tread on the foot
There’s (some)one in the parlour
Who must become mine
There’s (some)one in the parlour
Ju ja, (in the) parlour
Who must become mine
 
Why shouldn't she become mine?
I’m so fond of her
She has two sweet little blue eyes
That shine like two stars
She has two sweet little blue eyes
Ju ja, sweet little eyes
That shine like two stars
 
She has two cute little red cheeks
They are redder than the wine
Such a girl you won't find
Anywhere under the sunshine
Such a girl you won't find
Ju ja, you won’t find
Anywhere under the sunshine
 
When all the sweet fountains are flowing
A man must drink
If I’m not allowed to call my darling
Ooh, I'll wave at her
If I’m not allowed to call my darling
Ju ja, (not) allowed to call
Ooh, I'll wave at her
 

Maypole

Can't you hear the tunes, which your desire is promising you?
Your dark dream disappears in the face of the spring,
in the face of the spring.
 
If you are gifted with this bodily talent,
shake a leg, oh shake your leg.
 
I know the chalice can't be filled up just by wine only,
so it shall be my dance at this night.
 
Can't you feel the breathe, which promises the shadow a new day?
A night full of light will flourish for the one who plucks the first rose,
who plucks the first rose.
 
Do you pour me out a scent of this bloom,
show your leg, oh show your leg.
 
My burned mouth can taste the shining of your smile,
so I will be only yours tonight.
 
Who is awoken by a single tune from a thousand-year-long midnight.
The spell which once betrayed1 us, is wafting around us all with all its power.
 
But this dance under the maypole
will be mine for eternity
and from the long winter dream you will be recovered.
 
Can't you see the crowds whom love promises bliss?
Is your vision impaired by doubt, don't trust the delusion2,
don't trust the delusion.
 
If you let this bond be cut by your fear,
all that remains are bones, only bones.
 
But if you dedicate it to this festivity,
then every night will be spring.
 
Who is awoken by a single tune from a thousand-year-long midnight.
The spell which once betrayed us, is wafting around us all with all its power.
 
But this dance under the maypole
will be mine for eternity
and from the long winter dream you will be recovered.

Old comrades

Old comrades on the march through the country
Holding a friendship faithful and true.
Whether in need or in great danger
Always together they hold all anew .
 
During an attack, we will them give blow for blow,
Glory and honor, bring us victory,
Come, comrades, fresh and supplied,
This is our marching music (song).
 
During manoevers, the whole regiment
Took quarters in the nearest village house out there.
And we were flirting at our lodgings,
With all the girls and the landlord's daughter.
 
Laughing joking, laughing joking, today yes today
Unknown tomorrow is the whole regiment's fate and it's fortune
That, comrades, is the warrior's bitter lot
So take the glass in hand and say 'Cheers'.
 
Old Wine gives courage and strength,
In which lies the true lifeblood.
And this old heart does stay young
with all the powerful memories.
 
Whether in joy, whether in need,
We'll remain faithful unto death.
Drink from one and give some more
And let's be all, old comrades.
 
Even if we're old, the heart does stay young,
Let's all revel in the memories.
Drink up and pour a round
And let's be all, old comrades.
 

I Once Did Have A Comrade

I once did have a comrade,
You would find no better one .
The drum called us to battle,
And he did march there beside me ,
In perfect pace and stride.
 
A bullet came a-flying,
Is it my turn - is it yours?
And then it swept your life away,
There he lies, here at my feet, just
As if it were a part of me.
 
He reaches out his hand to me,
As I'm about to reload.
'I cannot hold onto your hand now,
May you rest there in eternal life
O My good comrade.'
 

He was a Friend of Mine

He was a friend of mine
His years cut short for me
The bullet that was mine
He gladly took, for me.
 
The bullet that was mine
He gladly took, for me.
 
We gaze, we seek, we ask
What is this all about
They tell us it's the task
For them, there is no doubt.
 
They tell us it's the task
For them, there is no doubt.
 
Again, we face sure hell
They say, no other way
For this my friend, we fell
We faced no other day.
 
For this my friend, we fall
and face no other day.
