"Sascha … ein aufrechter Deutscher" (An upstanding German) is an anti-Nazi song by Die Toten Hosen. It's the first single and the ninth track from the album Kauf MICH!.

The song tells a story about a jobless neonazi, whose hateful activities are sarcastically depicted very "German" and in a neutral light. Also the tune is fun and careless, which contrasts the theme and depiction even more.
