If they would tear your world apart
Would you intervene?
Music is a weapon
Sounds like a threat
Let the bass terrorize
There is no turning back!!!
Hey ! Activate!!!
Are you ready?
Countdown to the meltdown
ATR ! Take ‚em out!
99-2010
makes you wonder about your end!
Chip in your mind
Bullet in your head
Confrontation
The situation will escalate!
It’s any way you want
It’s any way you do
This is far from over yet
Don’t let them play you like a fool!
Hey! Activate!
Government control – too much government control!
Collect it up – Get up – get back!
I’ll fuck you up – the resistance stirs it up
Crack attacks playing hijacks – the big payback!
What you going to do when they come for you?
Governments are bankrupt
The army knows it – the activist knows it – the politician knows it and YOU know it!
Enjoy the final dance before darkness comes....
Did it ever occur to you to question what you were told?
Activate! Activate!

Blood In My Eyes
It’s a dangerous place
And you don’t know how to behave
He killed her heart - she took his soul
On the subject of cutting.... - it all feels numb !
When you can’t wash off that smell
You really don’t want to live you really just want to!!!!!>
so much blood - so much blood too much blood!!!!
Where d’you get your delusions from?
Where d’you get your delusions from??? 1,2,3, 4!!!
Blood in my eyes I got
Blood in my eyes I got
Blood in my eyes....
Blood in my eyes blood in my eyes ..... blood in my eyes....
Reconstructive surgery and you can specify how old you want to be 96
Snakeheads
Snakeheads
They’re just snakeheads
They got you drugged up anyway!!!
When men start mutilating their favourite girls,
something scary has been let loose among us
It’ll feel like an explosion the smoke, the heat....indescribable
TOO MUCH BLOOD!!!!
Where d’you get your delusions from?
Where d’you get your delusions from??? 1,2,3, 4!!!
Blood in my eyes I got
Blood in my eyes I got
Blood in my eyes....
Blood in my eyes blood in my eyes ..... blood in my eyes....

Black Flags
Atari Teenage Riot
Anonymous Teenage Riot
Are you ready to testify ?
Black Flags
Are you ready to testify?
You got 2 seconds
Are you ready to testify!!! Come on!
There’s a unified axis of government
And corporate power
Lawless and unrestrained
That’s what we should talk about
Corporations exploit the power of the state
To further enhance their power
And the real criminals get away
What they call „law“ is used to restrain us ordinary citizens who are opposed to this
Your cyberattacks are „crimes“ if the government dislikes you
But are perfectly ok if they unleash them
They pursue a whistleblower while criminal politicians get away
Do you want it all?
Do you want it all?
Do you want it all?
Try to threat the system
You’ll have the full weight of law
Come crashing down upon you
So you don’t resist
Surveillance, goons
Force us to be silent
They kill the careers of journalists
So no one can resist
There’s a class war going on
And it’s the rich who are waging it!
They try to destroy anyone who is a threat to their power
Playing for keeps – they want it all!
Are you ready to testify ?
Black Flags
Are you ready to testify?
You got 2 seconds
Are you ready to testify!!! Come on!

Is This Hyperreal?
The revolution has been activated
We’ve got to be brave to stand our ground like that
Stay under radar, breathe slowly
„drastic interventions are reserved for truly dangerous subjects“
Is this hyperreal ?
The streets smell of burnt rubber and urine
The time for debates is over, it’s time to act, time to fight through!
People are willing to eat rats to survive
7 days and they’ll turn to cannibalism
is this hyperreal?
Mutation mutation do you remember? „counterculture did mutate into a self-obsessed aesthetic vacuum at some point“ before we got here
Achtung! Achtung!
Hier spricht Atari Teenage Riot
Wir haben uns verbündet und wir werden über den Rasen zum Bundestag marschieren!
Einem Bundestag, der nicht mehr das Volk vertritt sondern die Konzerne !
Und wir werden sagen:
Hände hoch! Kommen Sie mit erhobenen Händen heraus!
Verbrennen Sie ihre Ausweise! Sie sind verhaftet!
Und dann werden wir eine lebendige Republik gründen, mit einer neuen Sprache, einem neuen Kalender, jeder wird jeden mit Respekt behandeln. Die Ära der Ausbeutung ist vorbei!

Shadow Identity
Fire and death
And rivers of blood
Don’t listen to my inner voice that says STOP!
Shadow Identity
Shadow Identity
Shadow Identity
Living a Shadow Identity!!!
Precious little diamonds
Cut
By precious little diamonds
Running for my life and I can’t stop!
Pushed to a line I cannot cross!
Running for my life and I can’t stop!
Being chased by friends I cannot trust
Shadow Identity
Shadow Identity
Shadow Identity
Living a Shadow Identity!!!
There is nothing they can say
That I want to hear
Who do you want to be and why?
Who do you want to be and why?
We’re never the same
What’s in the past affects us now
Shadow Identity
Shadow Identity
Shadow Identity
Living a Shadow Identity!!!
Can a human learn not to kill for greed?
Who do you want to be and why?
Who do you want to be and why?
Liars bring up jealousy
When you expose their crimes
Cruelty and shame
Such a surge
They don’t get it – They just don’t get it
They don’t get it – They just don’t get it
They don’t get it – They just don’t get it
Running for my life and I can’t stop
Fuel to the fire before it dies down!
Fuel to the fire before it dies down!
Fuel to the fire before it dies down!
Fuel to the fire before it dies down!
Who do you want to be and why?

Re-arrange Your Synapses
The internet....
Is it worth the creation of a black hole that sucks up our time, creativity and friendships?
Some believe the every day mobile device is as powerful as a nuclear hand grenade when it comes to starting a revolution!
Re-arrange your synapses
The ideologies behind that type of thinking aren’t exactly solid, my friend!
When the authorities catch up with us, and they will, not such a good idea to leave traces and expose your whole network at once.
Anonymous Teenage Riot
Atari Teenage Riot
Who is ever going to believe your story?
Re-arrange your synapses
The Nazis would have strangled Einstein in his crib if they had known.
Modern government decisions caused deaths of tens of thousands for profits
We’re about to live through dark times
Re-arrange you synapses
The survivors of the holocaust are soon gone.
But their voices still resonate when we look at the future of control technologies
The walk in the park will be a walk in the dark if we don’t act!
Spy on your neighbors, phone in a threat
Don’t question yourself, you’re a hero
Imagine attacks others might carry out
Look at what our society has become
Anyone can get tortured, anyone can disappear. Isn’t this terror?
Re-arrange your synapses
Capitalism – you’re a little fat man in a big expensive car hanging over a ravine here!
Re-arrange your synapses

Atari Teenage Riot : Digital Decay
the elite of our time has a wet dream:
they want to turn the internet into their personal global chessboard
where every user is a servant to their powers
freedom, truth, self-realization
this is what we want
and we must resist all forces
who are pushing against our liberation
stagnation, deflation
capitalism – the constant trigger for frustration
the more closed off the network is to outside intrusion,
the less able it is to engage with that which is outside itself
your after-life is digitized
your intellectual property is already digitized
Digital Decay
Digital Decay
Brooklyn, Berlin, Tokyo, Austin, L.A., London, Warsaw, Montreal, Limoges, Barcelona, Chicago, Baltimore, Taipei, Dublin, Amsterdam, Brussels
Glasgow, Milan, Vienna, Moscow, Perth, Detroit
freedom, truth, self-realization
this is what we need
as a collective, as an individual
the non virtual world should mirror and incorporate the possibilities of the free internet
let’s abolish the existing grid
the more closed off the network is to outside intrusion,
the less able it is to engage with that which is outside itself
your after-life is digitized
your intellectual property is already digitized
your possessions are digitized
your social network is digitized
Digital - Decay
Digital - Decay
Let’s abolish the existing grid as it only exists in our minds

Collapse of History
Information is like meds
They pump us full of them
I can’t trust my own eyes anymore
I think I can’t trust my own eyes anymore
Refrain I ohhoohhhohhhh The Collapse of History!!!!
Well, are you going to act or will you just stare at your screen to hours on end?
Must another crisis move another generation to action?
The collapse of history
The collapse of history
Press „forward-escape“ and watch it collapse! HEY!
Refrain II ohhoohhhohhhh The Collapse of History!!!!
Pause drum (Megaphone plus melody)
All this adrenaline is messing with my head
All this adrenaline is messing with my head
I want to become a threat
to noone but myself! HEY!
The collapse of history
The collapse of history
The collapse of history
Press „forward-escape“ and watch it collapse! HEY!
Refrain III ohhoohhhohhhh The Collapse of History!!!!
Activities crystallize in front of my eyes
Histories plasticize in front of my eyes
Conspiracies trivialize in front of my eyes
I can feel it rumbling in my mind! HEY!
The collapse of history
The collapse of history
The collapse of history
Press „forward-escape“ and watch it collapse! HEY!
Refrain IV ohhoohhhohhhh The Collapse of History!!!!
