Hail, hail, East Germany,
Land of fruit and grape.
Land where you’ll regret
Any try to escape.
No matter if you take a running jump or tunnel under the wall,
Forget it, the guards will kill you, if the electrified fence doesn’t first.
Think of all of those East German “girls” who could retroactively be awarded their gold medals.
How troglodytic we were...
Hail, hail, East Germany,
Land of fruit and grape.
Land where you’ll regret
Any try to escape.
No matter if you take a running jump or tunnel under the wall,
Forget it, the guards will kill you, if the electrified fence doesn’t first.
