"Die klügsten Männer der Welt" [The wisest men in the world] is a song by Die Ärzte. It's the seventh track on CD2 and the fifth single from their 2003 album Geräusch. It's a sarcastic ode to politicians. The CD-single features a computer game "Päcman" and also the video.

[edit] The video

Bela's role is a stupid hillbilly, who sings the song, watching the video. There's also clip of him doing other things in the country. Later he plays with a toy-tank and sends a toy-rocket to the sky. He then rides towards a mushroom of nuclear explosion. In the end these words appear: "...And anyway: not electing helps the wrong ones".
