I talked at length with a German metalhead about Rammstein.
Like a lot of Euro-alt bands (I'm definitely looking at you, Laibach), their lyrics are a bit deliberately ambiguous, which can be a bit worrying when they get embraced by the non-German-speaking fans, who end up chanting all the wrong bits from the chorus and seem to miss the point.
Rammstein generally seem to have their hearts in the right place, though, even though this track is literally all about being afraid of the black man.

Along with "You need to properly understand German to get it "
