A7V Mephisto

(album: The Blind Leading The Blind - 2018)

Armour 1.27 inches of the finest cast German steel
57 QF gun with 300 rounds, is ready to kill
Six MG 08, Caliber 7.92
30 tons of retribution which ruined the Villers-Bretonneux

I am in the Sturmpanzerwagen of death
Watch me until I end your breath

April 24, evening, we began at 10 o'clock
We woke up Mephisto and Tommy's got shellshock
25 round per minute, I think that's enough for fuck-up
Whippet's whipping around us
By morning they all will give up
It's hot as hell in here but we do it all over again
Reload all machineguns and cannon as well
The roof armour was damaged but we'll keep on fighting until
The last of us can still shoot
The last of us is still breathing

Armour 1.27 inches of the finest East German steel
57 QF gun with 300 rounds, is ready to kill
Six MG 08, Caliber 7.92
30 tons of useless metal
Bogged in the mud of Villers-Bretonneux
