MFG Lyrics in English Die Fantastischen Vier

MFG is a playful yet sharp snapshot of late-90s Germany, where every corner of life seems reduced to a jumble of capital letters. Die Fantastischen Vier fire off more than 120 acronyms in rapid succession — from TV stations (ARD, ZDF) and political ghosts (RAF, KKK) to club drugs (LSD, XTC) and tech buzzwords (WWW, IBM). This dizzying word-salad mirrors how modern media, advertising, and bureaucracy bombard us with information until real meaning gets lost in a cloud of noise.

Amid the acronym avalanche, the hook delivers the group’s manifesto: “Die Welt liegt uns zu Füßen, denn wir stehen drauf… Bevor wir fallen, fallen wir lieber auf” (“The world lies at our feet because we’re into it… Before we fall, we’d rather stand out”). They celebrate living loud, questioning authority, and refusing to disappear quietly. In other words, MFG wraps a critique of information overload inside a witty, head-nodding anthem that invites listeners to stay alert, stay playful, and always sign off with style — mit freundlichen Grüßen!
