lyrics

Your Northern Guise

I'm talking to myself
Whispering to your health
I hope you can't hear cause it's my own defense
Sing it out loud and see what happens

He told me all the facts
Said they all should go back
He gave me a salute with a painted ash moustache
He's only joking it's not his past

You and your photograph you go racing by
I can't recognise it all
You and your uncle Fritz he was close to you
Until you joined up
You and your heavy past reminds me of the stories
I've read too much
You and your straight face smile
Why not go breaking out in a loud laugh
You and your pale skin and your northern guise
Face up to it don't hide your eyes
You and your torrid ways and your scattered branches
Your 'hate families in the suburbs'
You and your 'Wirtschaftswunder' and your mind that kills
Only you know there's something up
You and your photograph you go racing by
You and your uncle Fritz he was close to you
