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 old days. "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, as well as 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".
