Der nette Mann

In August 1986 six of its 14 tracks were deemed to either promote violence (Fußball und Gewalt, Der nette Mann, Dr. Martens Beat), Nazi-ideology (Frankreich '84, Böhse Onkelz) or pornography (Mädchen) by the German Federal Department for Media Harmful to Young Persons (which means, it is not to be sold to minors, not to be put on public display, not to be advertised).

In 2019, the band asked the Federal Department for Media Harmful to Young Persons for a re-examination of the album and in December 2019 three songs (Der nette Mann, Mädchen, Böhse Onkelz) were taken off the index.

"Ich bin der nette Mann von nebenan, und jeder könnt' es sein.

Although the band intended the song as a statement against child molesters, the Bundesprüfstelle reached the conclusion, that its lyrics propagate violence towards children.

"Deutschland" begins with the lines "Auch zwölf dunkle Jahre in deiner Geschichte macht unsre Verbundenheit mit dir nicht zunichte.

Es gibt kein Land frei von Dreck und Scherben, hier sind wir geboren, hier wollen wir sterben" ("Also twelve dark years in your history destroyed not our solidarity to you / There's no state free from dirt and debris.

At a concert in Lübeck in 1985 singer Kevin changed the lyrics to "Schwarz-Weiß-Rot wir stehn zu dir" (Black-white-red, we stand to you) instead of "Schwarz-Rot-Gold wir stehn zu dir" (Black-red-gold, we stand to you), with the former being the colours of the banned Reichskriegsflagge as opposed to the official federal German flag.

Because of the line "Wir sind Böhse Onkelz und machen, was uns gefällt / Heute gehört uns Deutschland, morgen die ganze Welt ("We are Böhse Onkelz and do what we want / Today we rule Germany, and tomorrow the whole world) this song was a contributing factor to the album being embargoed.
