Die gedanken sind frei


(Begleitung Gitarre G alternativ A-Dur)

Die Gedanken sind frei,
wer kann sie erraten?
Sie fliehen vorbei
wie nächtliche Schatten.
Kein Mensch kann sie wissen,
kein Jäger erschießen,
es bleibet dabei:
die Gedanken sind frei.
es bleibet dabei:
die Gedanken sind frei.

Die Gedanken sind frei,
so heißt es schon lange,
trotz Knechtschaft und Tyrannei.
Wir waren nicht bange,
und konnten im Herzen
stets lachen und scherzen
und dachten dabei:
die Gedanken sind frei.

Die Gedanken sind frei,
doch jetzt hab ich Bedenken.
Es gibt da so mancherlei,
damit kann man sie lenken.
Es gibt da so Maschen,
da kann man sie waschen,
und schon eins, zwei, drei
sind sie nicht mehr ganz so frei.

Die Gedanken sind frei,
so frei wie die Presse.
Und denkst du, dass es anders sei,
dann gibt's auf die Fresse.
Sie wollen dich lenken,
dein Wissen und Denken,
und vielleicht schon im nächsten Mai
kommt die Gedankenpolizei.
Und vielleicht schon im nächsten Mai
Kommt die Gedankenpolizei.

Denn ob CI- oder NSA,
sie liegen auf der Lauer.
If you don't go the right way,
ja da werden sie sauer.
Sie bringen sie zum Schwanken,
deine eigenen Gedanken,
und du glaubst so nebenbei,
die Gedanken sind frei.

Die Gedanken sind frei,
solang sie nicht stören,
doch auf Verderb und Gedeih
weißt du, wem sie gehören.
Monsanto und Banken
und den Öllieferanten,
den Algorithmen von Google,
besser gib dir die Kugel,
dann ist alles vorbei ?
die Gedanken waren frei.
Dann ist alles vorbei ?
die Gedanken waren frei.

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
