Lyrics Marduk – Afrika
Text:
Futils struggle — an ocean of merciless sand
Invincible waves of fleas and flies
Iron nights and days of steel — at any cost shall we make them bleed
The tanks roll forward in Afrika — Afrika
Desert fox versus desert rats
A march through endless clouds of dust
Scorched iron oasis — desert blitz — Afrika — Afrika
Fever, cramps and diarrhea — as easy as 1 2 3
All that matters is crushing the enemy
Entangling arm of death — 88’s coughing mortal breath
The tanks roll forward in Afrika — Afrika
Shell after shell over bone-dry plains
The star of Afrika descends into flames
Underated — shallow stony graves — Afrika — Afrika
Counterattack — bleeding dry — Afrikakorps — outnumbered
Forcing the fox in retreat — fighting force collapse
Now facing the long road back
Tripoli, Bengasi — Stukas pounding tirelessly
Deafening explosions keeps the pace
Tobruk captured and painted red — El Alamein ahead
The tanks roll forward in Afrika — Afrika
Sand and drought flavored killing spree
The smell of palm trees and gasoline
No more retreat, only defeat — Afrika — Afrika — Afrika — Afrika
