The smash hit from German punk group Die Toten Hosen (The Dead Trousers), written for a theatre play A Clockwork Orange, based on the film.
YT - english lyrics:
In a world where you're only living to go through your day like a robot,
the biggest excitement is the daily tv picture.
Every man lives like a clockwork, programmed like a robot,
there's noone who stands up against it,
just a few youngsters are frustrated.
When the sun sets in the sky, the day starts for the Droogs
They meet in small gangs and go hunting together.
Hey, here is Alex!
The curtain raises for his Horrorshow!
Hey, here is Alex!
The curtain raises for a little bit of Horrorshow!
On a crusade against order and the seemingly sane world, they celebrate destruction, violance and brutality.
Only when they see their victims suffer do they feel satisfaction.
There's nothing that will stop them now in their limitless anger.
Hey, here is Alex!
The curtain raises for his Horrorshow!
Hey, here is Alex!
The curtain raises for a little bit of Horrorshow!
Twenty against one, until you can see the blood, whether with sticks or stones, at some point the head will crack.
The next victim is already found while you're asking God: Why havent you done something?
Hey, here is Alex!
The curtain raises for his Horrorshow!
Hey, here is Alex!
The curtain raises for a little bit of Horrorshow!
