Refrain
Tyrannicide
tyrannicide
duty of the real upright
don't feel save, you cannot hide
tyrannicide is a civil right

Harmodios and Aristogeiton
established once an iron law
society is authorized
to free itself of tyrants claw
be careful to invoke that right
never trust in smarmy jaw
take care, it's dangerous
never make erroneous choice

Refrain

Stauffenberg and William Tell
were sure enough to go through hell
because they knew
the time has come
to be the brave, to be the one
never falter, never tarry
if you're sure it's time to kill
have in mind if you're wrong
abused a right, stepped in a prong

Refrain

Tyrannicide is necessary
good deed and a civic duty
if there ain't no other ways
to stop dictators and their aides
have in mind you might get killed
be prepared for sacrifice
terrorist is sometimes
just another word for tyrant

Refrain
