Track notes

Mexico

After "Frankreich '84" was embargoed, the band wrote a new song for the 1986 FIFA World Cup. "Señoritas in arm, Tequila lukewarm / troubled by diarrhea and hunted by flies / In the land of the cactus, we will be - you will see - world champion, world champion again." Mexico is one of the biggest countries. The song is often sung by German soccer fans by matches, so for example at the World Cup match of Germany vs. Sweden in 2006.

Stolz (schnelle Version) (Pride - fast version)

This song is the same as on the album Der nette Mann, but it's a harder and faster version.

Stöckel & Strapse

A song about sex - they won't it "normal".

In jedem Arm ne...

"In every arm a woman" is the full title.

Gesetze der Straße

A song about violence on the street.
