The lyrics are better in German.

Ah, driving around Europe in ‘84 and listening to the song.

Most people, unless they knew German, didn’t realize it was an anti-American, anti-Reagan, anti-Nuke song.

Neun und neuzing leuft balluns...

Yeah,,, I picked up on that even in English. It wasn’t exactly subliminal.

I just remember it being a bunch of gibberish with “Captain Kirk” somewhere in the middle.

Yeah, the 80s were full of songs like that, but I did like a lot of them just the same, songs like “Red Skies at Night” by The Fixx.

Have you had the chance to watch the German production about that time? - Deutschland 83.

I thought it was an excellent portrayal of Commie paranoia.
