Not with me

What kind of guy is this one?
Why is he showing off like this?
Who am I or who was I?
Hey, are you crazy or what?
Just because you drive a Chevy and your name is Kevin
You're still nothing special
But I don't look any different, for sure not
 
Dare getting to me over the creek
And tell me what you want
Take care not to catch a cold
But don't forget:
 
Mowing the meadows, turning the hay, getting logs from the woods
Oh, can you do that too?
Transporting dung, chopping wood, making fire in the oven
Can you do that too?
 
Would lederhosen look good on you?
Ask your Valentino but don't bug me
An ox will never be a bull, not with me
 
You are the party king, you've been in the Playboy
But you're not impressing me
Because I'm just not into this, yeah, yeah, that's how it is
Whether you're drowning in money and winning at the casino
Hey, I just don't care
You won't last in the mountains, come on, forget about it
 
Mowing the meadows, turning the hay, getting logs from the woods
Oh, can you do that too?
Transporting dung, chopping wood, making fire in the oven
Can you do that too?
 
Where you are at home, in the high society
There's champagne instead of Jagertee
That's for sure not going to happen to you with me
Don't stand in my way, I have to see that I get going
Because I still have a lot to do
 
Mowing the meadows, turning the hay, getting logs from the woods
Oh, can you do that too?
Transporting dung, chopping wood, making fire in the oven
Can you do that too?
 
Are you still asking for it or what?
Are the working boots maybe a size too big for you?
Don't act as if, not with me
No, no, nothing, not with me!

Mother's letter

Are you still alive my dear old mum?
I'm also alive! Hello mum, Hello!
Let it stream over your hut at sundown
That ineffable magic evening glow.
 
While hiding the trouble, someone wrote,
You've been saddened over me my mum,
That you often going towards the road
In an old-fashioned shabby *sarafan.
 
And to you in the evening gloomy light
Very often you've seen before your eyes
Like someone in a tavern bloody fight
Stabbed me in the heart with a finish knife.
 
Never mind, my dear! Calm your heart.
It's just painful delirium and lie.
I'm not such a lost and hopeless drunkard,
So that, without seeing you, just die.
 
I'm still as gentle as I have ever been
And I dream of one thing when I'm alone,
So faster from depression and longing
To return to our little and dear home.
 
I'll be back when the branches are spread wide
In the garden, in cherry blossom snow.
Only , please dear mother, at sunrise
Don't wake me up like eight years ago.
 
Don't wake up, what I've tried to forget,
Don't disturb, what I didn't fulfil, but tried,-
Too early loss, fatigue and some regret
I happened to experience in life.
 
And don't teach me how to pray. No need for this!
There is no more return to our old life.
You alone are my help in need, my bliss,
You alone are my ineffable warm light.
 
So, forget about all your daily worries,
Don't be saddened over me, my Mum.
Do not go often on the road by the quarry
In an old-fashioned shabby sarafan.

Surfing pirate

We manage without reins a tide like a devil
We monopolize the rumors on a summer day
 
He's a pirate, a surfing pirate
I'm a surfer girl whose chest sways
We both are a couple of surfers
In the Pacific, in the Atlantic, from tide to tide
 
Sea spray, glittering rainbow
We're a sexy pair, a surfing honeymoon
An uproar, a flower of the shore
A storm of passionate kisses
He's a cheater who always forgets about me
Invited by a wink, I go with him aimlessly
 
He's a pirate, a surfing pirate
I'm a surfer girl whose chest sways
Love is a dangerous trump card
I'm fascinated, I throb, I get nervous
 
We manage smoothly
The white pipeline, a risky rendezvous
Among kisses and applauses
Gulls are looping the loop
He's popular and gathers the cute girls
Beware that in the moon nights, he wants to dress in white
 
He's a pirate, a surfing pirate
I'm a surfer girl whose chest sways
A bermuda and a red bikini
Dance, entwine and shine
 
He's a pirate, a surfing pirate
I'm a surfer girl whose chest sways
We both are a couple of surfers
In the Pacific, in the Atlantic, from tide to tide

New Year Speech

A blimp in the sky has carried your name across
And I lie laughing at you and the others
I lie sinking in a languid bliss
Try and get me from the sky!
 
How much do you cost? No need to lie
That you can't be bought or sold
So what were you talking about love,
Talking about struggle, you're the only one who needs it!
 
Neither you nor any other pig
Have hated me
Like I hate all of you
Like I hate myself
The lights on the Christmas tree are on,
So sweet,
And they, just like me, will die of love
 
A blimp in the sky has carried your name across
And I lie laughing at you and the others
I stand with a Christmas tree and snow behind me
No one will ever get me from the sky!
 
Neither you nor any other pig
Have hated me
Like I hate all of you
Like I hate myself
The lights on the Christmas tree are on,
So sweet,
And they, just like me, will die of love
Of all this love
Of my love

Ring, Little Bell, Ring

Ring, little bell, ring-a-ling-a-ling,
Ring, little bell, ring.
Let me in, all you children,
The winter is so cold,
Open these doors for me,
Don't let me freeze!
 
Ring, little bell, ring-a-ling-a-ling,
Ring, little bell, ring.
Ring, little bell, ring-a-ling-a-ling,
Ring, little bell, ring.
 
Listen girls and boys,
Open your room for me,
I will bring you lots of gifts,
You might be happy with!
 
Ring, little bell, ring-a-ling-a-ling,
Ring, little bell, ring.
Ring, little bell, ring-a-ling-a-ling,
Ring, little bell, ring!
 
The candles glow brightly,
Open your hearts to me.
I wish to dwell happily within them,
This Holy Child, so blessed!
 
Ring, little bell, ring-a-ling-a-ling,
Ring, little bell, ring.

Like This, Riding the Train

They all get off at the next station.
When the packed train
pulls into that station,
I’ll sit down.
 
Sometimes, I’m at a loss at what to do.
I want to be where I can be alone.
Yet I want to be needed
by somebody else, too.
 
Today, I’m kind of worn out.
Did I push myself too hard?
I can't become more than me.
So no-good days exist too, don't they?
 
Like this, riding the train.
I want to go any and everywhere.
A place where I can return to myself -
I wish to look for it.
Not losing to anybody -
it’s okay if I can’t grow that strong,
as is laughing slightly more tomorrow.
 
Comparing myself to other people
has left me feeling daunted.
Refusing surrender and forcing my way
turned out to be a mistake.
 
Even still, they weren’t complete failures.
Sunk in bitterness.
Of courage and kindness,
I may have learned a bit.
 
If there’s light, without doubt,
it's there so shadows can be born.
If you’re alive, days of smiling
aren't all that will come your way.
At any time, the important thing
isn’t seeking to erase those shadows.
It's walking on alongside them.
 
Like this, riding the train.
I want to go any and everywhere.
At times, let's forget everything
and take a breath. Not losing to anybody -
it’s okay if I can’t grow that strong,
as is laughing slightly more tomorrow.
 
It’s okay to laugh slightly more tomorrow.

Searching for Pigs in the City

We are looking for pigs in the wild fields,
We find three in our imagination.
The birds up in the white clouds are chasing,
They are dancing under the trees.
La la la la la la la la la leh
La la la la la Leh
We spent many years in our imagination,
The village has grown scientifically into a city.
 
We are searching for pigs in the city,
We find a few hundred thousand in our imagination.
The birds are singing in the park,
They are dancing alone in their imagination.
La la la la la la la la la leh
La la la la la Leh
We spent many years in our imagination,
And the city has grown artistically into a village.
 
We are looking for pigs in the wild fields,

We're this crazy in our imagination.

La la la la la la la la la leh
La la la la la Leh
We spent many years in our imagination,
and we start imagining again many years later.
La la la la la la la la la leh

Diamond

Diamond, diamond, how shining,
Like a star picked from the sky.
Stars in the sky are out of reach,
As diamond's more valuable than gold.
 
Diamond, diamond, how gleaming,
Looking like a rainbow a lot.
A rainbow lasts only a moment,
Unlike diamond ever-glittering.
 
I love diamond so shining,
I love diamond so gleaming,
I love diamond colder than ice,
I love diamond harder than steel.
 
Diamond, diamond, how shining,
Like a star picked from the sky.
Stars in the sky are out of reach,
As diamond's more valuable than gold.

Diamond, diamond, I love you,
I love diamond's everlasting glitter!

Forgiveness

I am asking you to forgive me,
To release me like a bird into the sky.
I am asking you to forgive me,
Today, once and for all.
“I love you” - you said to me,
And the flowers in the garden heard that,
I will forgive you, but what if the flowers
Won’t be ever able to do so.
 
And the memories, they are sacred,
Like a gleam of the exalted flame,
Forgiveness, forgiveness -
Don’t ask for forgiveness of me now...
 
I can forgive you,
And let you fly like a song in the sky.
I can forgive you,
Today, once and for all.
Yesterday, you answered: “Yes”,
And water in the river heard that.
I will forgive you, but what if the river
Won’t be ever able to do so.
 
And the memories, they are sacred,
Like a gleam of the exalted flame,
Forgiveness, forgiveness -
Don’t ask for forgiveness of me now...
 
And the memories, they are sacred,
Like a gleam of the exalted flame,
Forgiveness, forgiveness -
Don’t ask for forgiveness of me now...

Between Heaven and Hell

[Part 1]
I think of the days without steaks and Rolex
Only a penny to my name, no Benz, living on a life code
Every day at Six, I wake up dead (what?!)
From Monday to Wednesday the same uniform
and for a bit of extra cash, you develop methods
Earlier in front of the stage, now you find me on it
You say things behind my back, but I took off
But the parcel that I'm wearing, mate, keeps me down
Between fake friends and filters, you lose reality
Too much in this life is a lie
And even if shit goes down like an anchor
I'll always be grateful (yeah man!)
 
[Pre-hook]
So far away from good and evil
an ice cold look, I want to see the sun
but the cold wind is dividing us
so hot blood floods through my veins and
Between heaven and hell is where we find ourselves
walking a fine line while hanging over the abyss
Don't show weakness - that's the only rule,
So when the storm comes, don't you dare cry
 
[Hook]
So when all goes to shit
the shards of glass reflect the light
So when all goes to shit
the shards of glass reflect the light
So when all goes to shit
the shards of glass reflect the light
So when all goes to shit
the shards of glass reflect the light
 
[Part 2]
My dreams fall onto the paper then go up in flames
No dough in the bank and the rent came from the office
Leccy bill not been paid, so I only have candles
And I saw my reflection in a shard on the wall
I ask myself everyday 'why me? Goddamn!
Do I have to live like a dog in order to die as a man?'
From then on it was now and no longer at some point
The route was so long, I put my hand on my back
Took a pen to the hand, and wrote my life story
30,000 pages later, look at the beach
look at the bank, I count the smiles on my face
and I'm great, thank God
 
[Pre-hook]
So far away from good and evil
an ice cold look, I want to see the sun
but the cold wind is dividing us
so hot blood floods through my veins and
Between heaven and hell is where we find ourselves
walking a fine line while hanging over the abyss
Don't show weakness - that's the only rule,
So when the storm comes, don't you dare cry
 
[Hook]
So when all goes to shit
the shards of glass reflect the light
So when all goes to shit
the shards of glass reflect the light
So when all goes to shit
the shards of glass reflect the light
So when all goes to shit
the shards of glass reflect the light
 
[Bridge]
With my head now above the water and a bag full of stones
I can throw them, so we're laughing, because our trainers are still white
I only want to be on the straight and narrow
But Slalom must be run, because the way out is full of shit.
Every day's the same
To die is too much so survival it is
And everyone is divided
So from here under and over is not that far away
Because we have proof.
 
[Hook]
So when all goes to shit
the shards of glass reflect the light
So when all goes to shit
the shards of glass reflect the light
So when all goes to shit
the shards of glass reflect the light
So when all goes to shit
the shards of glass reflect the light

Silent Expression / The Silent Look

I wanna ask carefully -
Oh dear, do you
See my silent countenance?
You're so familiar behind the back view.
Is it a silent personality of you?
 
After the footsteps receded,
After my eyes opening,
Everything and everyone turn silent.
The face in wind and rain is still lonesome,
Rushing towards the thousands of silent nights.
 
Why is it that you, I see in my dream so clear
Resemble me simply?
 
Gently I ask,
Do I have to keep waiting?
'Cause the night is now so deep.
Softly I ask,
Is the night now so deep?
Do I need to remain waiting?
 
The night is so deep,
Gently I wanna ask,
Do I have to keep waiting?
The night is so deep,
Do I need to remain waiting?
Softly I wanna ask.
 
Do I need to keep waiting?
'Cause the night is now so deep.
Gently I wanna ask.
Do I need to remain waiting?
Softly I wanna ask.
'Cause the night is now so deep...

Succession of Sin ~ORIGINAL SIN~

With frozen eyes
I look into the sky as I smile
My fingertips numb with cold
The red snow dancing irregularly
Colors you the same shade
 
『All you have left to end within you
Is your broken kindness...』so I say with a sneer
 
You, heavy with the effort of breathing
Show the knife that was just stuck in your back to your feathers
And hold me close
 
This pain I can't get rid of is fate
The succession of sin
 
Nestling close to the moonlight
Tortured by the repetition of sin I scream
With the tears that well up in your wide open eyes I realize
That I must murder somebody...
 
『Impossible dreams are pointless』you say
As you gently trace my cheek with your finger as I crumble
No matter how many things I say
I couldn't reach your ruined heart
 
Tune of scarlet tears
And the loneliness of a moonlit night
 
'If you don't want it stolen, don't you look away'
You smile to me as I weep
 
『Just shoulder this unforgivable sin and its punishment
And fly, to the heights of eternity...』
 
-- The only thing I have left to end with these hands of mine
Is it the last thing I can do?--
 
As you gently looked up into the night sky
The tears spilling out of your eyes were so cold
 
As I look upon your sleeping form
I inherit the sin

Listen to Me!

You will only realize
When the cities burn
Plague and hunger afflict you
Your screams fade away
You will only realize when the earth shakes
When it rains ash and you miserably vanish
 
Listen to me, listen to me
I predict your demise
 
You will only realize
When hope escapes
You'll begin to devour yourselves
Because only dust will be left to you
Only in the very last war you will realize
That there are no winners among you
 
Listen to me, listen to me
I predict your demise
Listen to me, listen to me
I predict demise for you
 
Your end has never been distant
You remain as a spark in eternity
Your days have almost trickled away
It has, it has begun
 
Listen, listen, listen
Listen to me (me me)
Listen, listen, listen
Listen to me (me me)
Listen, listen, listen
Listen to me (me me)
Listen, listen, listen
Listen to me (me me)
Listen to me
 
Listen to me, listen to me
I predict your demise
Listen to me, listen to me
I predict demise for you
Your demise

I'll Stay

Versions: #1
Our hearts beat the same
because they're actually just one.
I can still be far away, but
not without you anymore.
I'm yours.
 
I'll stay when they go,
those who only like to see you in the light.
Even if your path leads into darkness,
even if a shadow touches you.
 
I'll stay when they go,
those who only like to see you in the light.
And when we're stranded in the dark,
I want to dance with you.

If I hurt you, I could never forgive myself.
You give me wings and set me free.
You're my best friend.
I once dreamed of you.
 
I'll stay when they go,
those who only like to see you in the light.
Even if your path leads into darkness,

Follow Us

A bold heart cannot be admonished.
It doesn't want to sense the light that works only in a dream.
It wants to leap to heaven in glory
and sing about the springtime of a new world.
 
Follow us, we are a will.
Raise yourselves up from the silence.
Follow us into a new reality.
I already breathe the new era.
 
We break out of the crippling confines
and unleash our true power.
We unfold what makes us creators.
Follow us, we have awakened.
 
Follow us, we are a will.
Raise yourselves up from the silence.
Follow us into a new reality.
I already breathe the new era, the new era.
 
Follow us, we are a will.

We have the right to new values.
Follow us without fear and free of guilt
into a new reality.

Victory Day

Victory Day was so far away from us,
Like an ember in an extinct bonfire.
We have walked plenty of dusty and burnt miles,
With tremendous efforts we were bringing Victory Day closer.
 
Victory Day smells of gunpowder
This is the holiday with grey temples
And joy mixed up with tears.
Victory Day, Victory Day, Victory Day!
 
Our Motherland worked hard
At Martin furnaces night and day.
Night and day we were fighting a difficult battle
Bringing Victory Day closer.
 
Victory Day smells of gunpowder
This is the holiday with grey temples
And joy mixed up with tears.
Victory Day, Victory Day, Victory Day!
 
Hello, Mom, we are not all back home.
I would like to run barefoot through the dew.
We have walked half of Europe, half of Earth,
Bringing Victory Day closer.
 
Victory Day smells of gunpowder
This is the holiday with grey temples
And joy mixed up with tears.
Victory Day, Victory Day, Victory Day!

Earth's Gravity

How boundless is Earth's gravity,
Fields' gravity and that of the sad willows,
All the roads that we passed along in childhood,
And the roads that we still have to pass.
 
There are high mountains,
There is vast steppe,
Winds fly and raise dust
On country roads.
We are the children of the Galaxy,
But, most importantly,
We are your children,
Our beloved Earth!
 
Fields' gravity, gardens' gravity,
And those of sunsets and pine-trees In fluffy snow.
Small villages' gravity, big cities' gravity
And that of the night bonfire on the empty beach.
 
There are high mountains,
There is boundless steppe,
Winds fly and raise dust
On country roads.
We are the children of the Galaxy,
But, most importantly,
We are your children,
Our beloved Earth!
 
This order of things will not change.
Earth's gravity will overtake me
And I will recall the gravity of my darling
In the distant window.
 
There are high mountains,
There is boundless steppe,
Winds fly and raise dust
On country roads.
We are the children of the Galaxy,
But, most importantly,
We are your children,
Our beloved Earth!

Things (East and West)

I received a message that needs to be replied quickly
Let me think about it
Do I respond to you?
If we say that in the future
I won't need to worry about bothering you
 
I'm waiting for it
You welcome me
On an uninhabited island
With beautiful scenery
I have a dream
The bamboo dragonfly takes me on a long journey
To your heart
That mysterious Paris
I want to have a baby with you
 
I began my beautiful encounter with you
If you come from the east or the West
It doesn't matter
I will listen to you
I always go with you.
Travel shoulder to shoulder
I would like to accompany you to East and West

Who You Are

Where will this day take me today, I do not know
I truly don't
What does it matter?
Drinking coffee, going back to bed
From experience, it's pretty deceiving
I honestly don't know what I'm doing
 
And I still got many things to do
Weighing down on my shoulders
I'm carrying a case
And how it creates a distance
To just silence what I am
Gotta suppress it
When will it stop?
It this sad or funny?
 
In the end, you have to know
Fate is stronger than you
Mute all the noise that passes you by
Don't need no costumes
Go shout it in the streets -
Who you are
 
Where will these thoughts of tomorrow eventually take me, I do not know
About to lose my mind
How do I get out of this?
And there are a million others like me, screaming it all night till it hurts
Following their hearts
What is there to be afraid of?
 
Everybody's talking
Gotta let it slide
Weighing down on my shoulders
I'm carrying a case
And how it creates a distance
To just silence what I am
Gotta suppress it, when will it stop?
It this sad or funny?
When will it stop?
 
In the end, you have to know
Fate is stronger than you
Mute all the noise that passes you by
Don't need no costumes
Go shout it in the streets -
Who you are
 
In the end, you have to know
That everything comes in its time
And the light within will arrive
When you are ready
Don't need no costumes
Go shout it in the streets -
Who you are

A traveler like floating cloud

Shouldering a white backpack,
with swift footsteps I march on
I don’t know what is the end of the sky
I don’t know what is the sorrow of parting either.
 
The distant journey is endless.
I travel through night and day to the future.
I sing old time’s mountain song
and remember the home of my hometown
 
( I am like) a traveler like floating cloud
with hometown nostalgia packed in the traveling bag
Although with great effort I walk forward,
the nostalgia of hometown still came to my dreams.

Flying Eagle

Ah! May I be a flying eagle
Flapping wings
Soaring in the sky
No matter at sunny day
Or at dark night
Never getting lost
I want to fly through the highest mountain
And the largest grassland
As well as oceans and forests
To see the gorgeousness
And joy of the world
Bring my love
To the world's every corner
 
AH...
 
Wish you were an eagle
Flying with me
Soaring in the sky
No matter it's windy
Or stormy
Staying by my side
With me, fly through the highest mountain
And the largest grassland
As well as oceans and forests
To see the wonders
And warmth of the world
Bring my love
To the world's every corner
 
AH...

Show's Over

Versions: #1
Hands hooked, muzzles squared,
Under brows came sidelong glances.
He came to the shack,
To poison them with sausage.
 
Holding wine glasses sullenly,
Pouring one-at-a-time.
He came to the shack,
To poison them with sausage.
 
Credits roll, the show's over.
You run home barefoot,
To the shack,
To poison them with sausage.
 
The time comes and goes,
Cuts in with a sharp blade.
But here's someone in the shack,
To poison them with sausage.

People (Parody On Grönemeyer's Männer)

People are hoarding canned food,
thinkin' they're terribly smart,
people hoard toilet paper
to upholster their homes,
and yet they' re so vulnerable.
Maybe they think they're just irreplaceable.
 
People also hoard pasta,
waiting for it in line at the store,
People buy like crazy,
and go by tram for free.
Oh, people are always ready,
All for money and for gluttony.
 
People grasp a lot, take it easy,
even if there isn't enough for everyone.
They' re calibrated to egos since they were kids.
When does man become a man?
 
When does man become a man?
When does man become a man?
 
People wash their hands,
People are afraid of the GAU.
Buy a hundred masks,
and they think they're so smart.
Oh, people are lonely fighters
and just keep going on like this.
 
People grasp a lot, take it easy,
even if there isn't enough for everyone.
They' re calibrated to egos since they were kids.
When does man become a man?
When is a man a man?
When is a man a man?
 
Humans fight wars,
everyone want to be the greatest.
People build rockets,
people fall for Nazis.
People make speeches,
don't get involved in anything.
 
When does man become a man?
When does man become a man?
 
People could act differently,
people can be reasonable.
People can not just
help only themselves.
Oh, people would be dependable,
then our world wouldn't be so ugly.
 
It's not always easy for people,
also because no two are alike.
Only when there'll be enough earth for everyone,
then man will be a human being!
Then man is a human being!
Then man is a human being!
When is one a human being?
When is one a human being?

Flipped (The Small Town Girl)

Under the phoenix tree,
I saw her long dark hair.
Under white moonlight
She was dressed like an orchid.
 
I saw her in my dream.
Her eyes were so beautiful.
Let me walk slowly over to her.
Whisper to me.
 
On that small bridge
Our eyes met.
I wonder
If she feels the same.
 
She ran her fingers through her hair,
As if confirming
That I was so obsessed with her.
 
She has an Oriental charm in her eyes.
Every twinkle in her eyes and each smile is so pure.
Never met a girl so pure.
I'll never let her go.
Oh, girl!
She was born with the tenderness.
Easily
Fascinated me.
 
My heart goes boom, boom, boom...
I met my dream girl in a little town.
Heart goes boom, boom, boom...
She made my heart beat faster and took it away.
 
Falling for her, yeah!
I know it for sure, yeah!
She is so real.
She is so special.
So don't wanna wait no more.
Day and night I wanna go back to that little town.
I regret not taking her hand and letting her go.
 
She has an Oriental charm in her eyes.
Every twinkle in your eyes and each smile is so pure.
Never met a girl so pure.
I'll never let her go.
Oh, girl!
She was born with the tenderness.
Easily
Fascinated me.
 
My heart goes boom, boom, boom...
I met my dream girl in a little town.
Heart goes boom, boom, boom...
She made my heart beat faster and took it away.
 
My heart goes boom, boom, boom...
I met my dream girl in a little town.
Heart goes boom, boom, boom...
She made my heart beat faster and took it away.

Let's make the Best of It

I look out from my window
As March moves through the ghostly streets
What should we do?
Spring just has to bloom without us
 
And I think back to last year:
You and I on the grass in the park
Beer cold, your kiss was warm
 
Even when everything is shaking around us
And distance is needed
Let’s move our hearts closer together
Let’s make the most of it
 
Thanks to all
That are grafting against death
And I miss my friends
Send you my love on the phone
 
Even when everything is shaking around us
And distance is needed
Let’s move our hearts closer together
Let’s make the most of it
 
Even when this time is challenging
There is still hope
That the day will come when it is all over
And the world opens up again
 
And we'll see each other again
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
And we'll see each other again
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
 
Even when everything is shaking around us
And the world is wheezing
Let’s move our hearts closer together
Let’s make the most of it
 
Even when everything is shaking around us
And distance is needed
Let’s move our hearts closer together
Let’s make the most of it
Let’s make the most of it

God is a Country Chick

Ooh ahh
Melissa! Naschenweng!
You think, that with your Adonis-body, you can just do whatever you want
high and holy you swear to me, 'I'm different, you can believe me!'
Go! Leave the church in the village (12 somethings??)
False angel, see that you go to the devil!
 
[Chorus:]
Such a shame, such a shame, such a shame,
but if you're kneeling in front of me,
that means you must have understood it,
God is a country chick (Dirndl is both the dress and a young lady of the region I believe)
Such a shame, such a shame, such a shame,
That you honor me in your prayer,
that might be worth the sin
because God has got to be a country chick!
Ohhh ahhh ooohhh ahhh
God is a country chick!
 
[Verse 2]
God! When you act so sanctimoniously,
you really start to...
between heaven and hell
a guardian angel has failed
and then you give me a bouquet of flowers
and come back with the same crap,
'Baby, take me back!'
 
[Chorus:]
Such a shame, such a shame, such a shame,
but if you're kneeling in front of me,
that means you must have understood it,
God is a country chick (Dirndl is both the dress and a young lady of the region I believe)
Such a shame, such a shame, such a shame,
That you honor me in your prayer,
that might be worth the sin
because God has got to be a country chick!
Ohhh ahhh ooohhh ahhh
God is a country chick!
 
[Verse 3]
Now we have what we want (?)
You're begging in front of me,
You know there's just one winner at this game
And that's me!
You sing for me... oh oh oh oh my God!
(Umm, it's ok for you to call me 'Melissa'!)
 
[Chorus:]
Such a shame, such a shame, such a shame,
but if you're kneeling in front of me,
that means you must have understood it,
God is a country chick (Dirndl is both the dress and a young lady of the region I believe)
Such a shame, such a shame, such a shame,
That you honor me in your prayer,
that might be worth the sin
because God has got to be a country chick!
Ohhh ahhh ooohhh ahhh
God is a country chick!

8-Bit Fairy Tale Land (C=64)

I sleep behind thorns.
In the castle tower, I think of you.
With my heart so pure and sweet,
I'll spin your straw into pure gold.
 
I sit by a fountain
and will transform you with a kiss,
because no one is quite so in love
with a prince - who doesn't exist.
 
This isn't a fairy tale land,
but I don't care.
Only if you believe in me
will it be real for us.
 
This isn't a fairy tale land,
but I'll fight for it.
In my fantasy,
my prince will soon come to me.
 
And if we live happily ever after,1
I'll give you a beautiful child.
Forever I will love only you.
But I don't believe in fairy tales.
 
This isn't a fairy tale land,
but I don't care.
Only if you believe in me
will it be real for us.
 
This isn't a fairy tale land,
but I'll fight for it.
In my fantasy,
my prince will soon come to me.
 
  • 1. Literally 'And if we're not dead.' Instead of 'They all lived happily ever after,' German fairy tales end with the line 'Und wenn sie nicht gestorben sind, dann leben sie noch heute.' = 'And if they're not dead, then they're still alive today.'

The Night Flower

Night is like a still1 sea,
Desire, sorrow and love’s grievances2
Come so abstrusly3 hither
Within the gentle strike of waves.4
 
Wishes, like clouds,
sail through still skies.
Who can tell in the mild5 wind,
Whether they are thoughts or dreams?
 
I close now both heart and mouth,
That so gladly grieve to the stars.
But quietly in the bottom of my heart,
Remains the gentle strike of waves.
 
  • 1. 'still' in German, like in English, means still in action but also in sound. Thus, this word could be figuratively describing the quietude of thought in the persona’s mind.
  • 2. both in it’s nominal and verbal form can mean both complain/complaint as well as grieve/grievance. Its usage here is most certainly the latter, and does not mean “complain” in the English sense.
  • 3. convoluted and therefore confusing because it cannot be easily separated
  • 4. constrastive imagery. The “schlagen” or striking of the incoming wave implies force whereas the adjective “lind” lightens that action to be of a gentle nature.
  • 5. literally a description of temperature that is neither too hot nor too cold, therefore mild and pleasant

Night watch

We used to get up with the rise of the sun
And lived a thousand years,
And then someone just took and stole
The fire, and flickering light disappear.
Then, some of us suddenly begin to pray,
The others sharpened the fangs,
But we all lived and drunk along the Blue river banks.
 
And then time flowed through our fingers,
The river became shallow by winter.
And those, who have always lived there, begin to blame
Newcomers from afar.
Some had sons growing up,
Others- daughters, pretty and slim,
But we all drunk from the same stream.
 
We imprisoned each other in a fortress,
We burned the bridges.
Above this city a star with a crescent,
Above the other- crosses on peaks.
Over one window the sound of oriole’s song,
Over the other the crows will scream,
But we all drunk from the same stream.
 
One gone to the mountains, away from the world
To the sources of Yin and Yang.
Another just smoked a hookah in a dark tea room
Sitting on the soft ottoman.
One of the wives had a white dress,
The one in black is nobody's wife, it seems,
But we all drunk from the same stream.
 
One has risen higher and higher in life,
The other broken the wing.
On some fields the ears of wheat were abundant,
On others not one tiny seedling.
One was dying, caught by a neighbor’s bullet,
Another fired his rifle at him,
But we all drunk from the same stream.
 
And taken a sip, some of wine, some of potion,
One remembers the father, one mother,
One decides, that it is time to build,
But it's time to blow up for another.
But every midnight the one Sitting
By the mill of Fates resolves their argument:
He says, who going to be the watchman.

Forbidden to touch

It's forbidden to touch
When I am dancing ( When I am dancing)
Oh, there is alcohol in the bottle
Then we're staying, staying
 
Chorus
It's forbidden to touch - just watch, watch,
watch, watch how I am dancing drunk under the moon.
Such a pain, there is alcohol in the bottle - it's time for them to go home
Then we're staying, staying
 
Verse 1
With a rum we are so weightless, free, brazen
We came across, we're looking at each other languishingly.
Discharged IQOS, address lost,
artificial joy, and you are addicted to me.
 
LEDs are lighting, we're picking up the codes.
Your eyes wouldn't mind discovering what's under my body.
Cold gin in the cola - a melodious cocktail.
Breathe my oxygen, we get free.
 
Chorus
It's forbidden to touch - just watch, watch,
watch, watch how I am dancing drunk under the moon.
Such a pain, there is alcohol in the bottle - it's time for them to go home
Then we're staying, staying
 
It's forbidden to touch - just watch, watch,
watch, watch how I am dancing drunk under the moon.
Such a pain, there is alcohol in the bottle - it's time for them to go home
Then we're staying, staying
 
Verse 2
In this vast area
My vibe is your medicine
Play with me on the contrasts.
Love is so volatile
 
Their feelings are in plastic
But so much desire
We would have passed without casting
in hundreds of films.
 
The dance floor is flashing tones
with cool gamma
We're gathering our cosmos
with fragments of origami
 
Watch with your eyes
everything that is between us
It's more than a hype in instagram
more than a one-night stand
 
Chorus
It's forbidden to touch - just watch, watch,
watch, watch how I am dancing drunk under the moon.
Such a pain, there is alcohol in the bottle - it's time for them to go home
Then we're staying, staying
 
It's forbidden to touch - just watch, watch,
watch, watch how I am dancing drunk under the moon.
Such a pain, there is alcohol in the bottle - it's time for them to go home
Then we're staying, staying

My Jolly Sailor daring]

My heart.
We're going to take it away.

Just a sailor.

Beautiful maidens.
A strong man.
The ship aboard

We're going to take it away.
Over rough seas
Just a sailor.

Over rough seas
Just a sailor.
