Lyrics:
Swinging axe, swinging axe
above my head above my head
with every nametag that I wear
Swinging axe, swinging axe
I’m in my my means, in my means
don’t mean anything
Swinging axe, swinging axe

Guillotine I need you, and it’s off to work we go
Cutting down the time, in unemployment lines

Not at fault not at fault
says the boss says the boss
I get a little piece of paper
nothing on it, nothing on it
and i’m off it on it off it on it off it on it

Guillotine nine-to-five, paying all my things on time
Guillotine every day, and nobody gets paid

Comfort is the silent killer (komfort ist der stillekille)
Idleness the enemy
I fill out the application, poster boy for motivation
I wait here patiently
Make it stop stop stop

Guillotine I need you, and it’s off to work we go
Cutting down the time, in unemployment lines
Who’s looking out for me?
