Track notes

Onkelz wie wir

Like many Onkelz songs, "Onkelz wie wir" glorifies the band.

Von Glas zu Glas

A song about alcohol, and the phenomenon of girls appearing prettier from glass to glass.

Erinnerungen

This song is an elegiac goodbye to the days when . "I love to recall those times / Times I'll never forget / But I have to live my life, go my own way / Take care, good old days / Farewell."

Bomberpilot

An ironic song about the insanity of wars.

Dick + Durstig

This song is about alcohol, and the band's lead singer Kevin, who weighed about 240 pounds around this time.

Falsche Propheten

This song is against following all kinds of "false prophets", whether they are religious or political figures, or the band itself.

Am Morgen danach

The morning after heavy drinking.

Schöner Tag

Another song about alcohol.

Heut' Nacht

A song about murderous obsession.

!

A fast guitar instrumental. The working title was "Speed".
