Now, this is a story all about how
My life got flipped-turned upside down
And I'd like to take a minute
Just sit right there
I'll tell you how I became the prince of a House called Rheinland
On the west of Hamburg born and raised
In Cambridge University where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool
And debating some radicals outside of the school
When a couple of BDM who were up to no good
Started making trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight and ambitions got grand
They said I’m movin' with in the Union up in Rheinland
I begged and pleaded with SIS day after day
But they packed my shuttlecraft and sent me on my way
They gave some contacts and Carinea gave me my ticket.
I put my Pickelhaube on and said, 'I might as well kick it'.
First class, yo this is bad
Drinking bier out of a litre-deep glass.
Is this what the people of Rheinland living like?
Hmm this might be alright.
But wait I hear they're federals, bourgeois, all that
Is this the type of place that they just send this cool cat?
I don't think so
I'll see where I stand
I hope they're prepared for the prince of Rheinland
Well, the shuttle landed and when I came out
There was a dude who looked like a fed standing there with my name out
I ain't trying to get arrested yet
I just got here
I sprang with the quickness like lightning, disappeared
I whistled for friends and when they came near
The tag said DHC and it and the crowd were a-cheer
I could say that this revolution was mine to command
But I thought 'Nah, forget it' - 'Yo, homes to Rheinland’
I pulled up to the palace about seven or eigth
And I yelled to the Feds 'Yo homes smell ya later'
I looked at my kingdom
It was powerful and grand
To sit on my throne as the Prince of Rheinland.

Peace, being the distant dream it is, comes inevitably, and goes hand in hand with justice.
Cursed be the war.
