Of Germany, not far away
Behind the prison wall


On your way to West Berlin
You cross the GDR
The country of equality

As well as black and white
No one wants to leave this paradise
Must be heaven on earth

But I never saw an angel
With a machine gun I in a watch tower


Hey you people behind the wall
Just hear me call
Blow up the symbol of hate

It's your fate
So don't wait
To blow up the symbol of hate


Mr. Honecker hear me call
I'm knocking on your heaven's wall


Hey you people behind the wall
Just hear me call

Blow up the symbol of hate
It's your fate
So don't wait

To blow up the symbol of hate

Have you ever heard about

The people in the east
Of Germany, not far away
Behind the prison wall


Just be quiet, don't talk too loud
S.T.A.S.I. is watching you

The human rights, far out of reach
But it's worth to fight it out
I'm sure there must be something wrong

With your socialistic dream
'Cause no one is allowed to wake up
The nightmare never ends


Hey you people behind the wall
Just hear me call

Blow up the symbol of hate
It's your fate
So don't wait

To blow up the symbol of hate

Hey you people behind the wall

Just hear me call
Blow up the symbol of hate
It's your fate

So don't wait
To blow up the symbol of hate
