[Intro: glockenspiel and organ] [Verse 1] A grey hotel on the edge of Leipzig A minibar and a camera in the wall He signed his name on a stranger's napkin And someone in Moscow kept it all [Verse 2] The money came in plain brown envelopes Through a charity for lost and lonely men The Heimatbund bought flags and loudspeakers And shouted "Germany" again and again [Chorus] No questions, no receipts A quiet voice in the leader's ear No questions, no receipts Sleep now, darling, the men from the GRU are here [Verse 3] They printed fear on every lamppost They set the neighbours at each other's throats The more it burned, the more the rubles Came drifting in on Baltic boats [Bridge: half time, organ swells] There's a file with your name There's a tape of your shame You can salute the Fatherland But you'll dance to someone else's hand [Verse 4] The Bundestag is full of whispers The Chancellor cannot trust the phone And every patriot on the payroll Was bought and sold and never known [Final Chorus: soft falsetto harmonies] No questions, no receipts A quiet voice in the leader's ear No questions, no receipts Sleep now, Germany, the men from the GRU are here [Outro: glockenspiel alone, fading] Sleep now Sleep now
