Achterbahn [English translation]

Everybody wants me to plant a tree, or to build a house1

They want to be able to count on me,

Like if I was going by a countdown

They want me to act mature,

Not just be looking at beautiful ladies

To do some more exercise, in order to prevent the physical decay

They want me to do what everybody does

'Come on, why don't you do a trip around the world?'

To sit down and write great hits for the money

My parents want to have grandchildren

To rock them on their knees

Make sure it all keeps going on

[Chorus:]

I say 'Hello!' and greet from the rollercoaster

And I feel alright, 'cause it all feels just fine

'Cause I'm still cruisin' without following a scheme,

After all those years

And I feel alright, 'cause it all feels just fine

They want me to live by a scheme, or raise my arm

So they can support me like an armrest

They want me to be flexible and competent

Drive my weaker self out of me

That I should look at my future, as if I saw it in a cristal ball

To retain some savings,

Because of the world and all its turmoil

Should find a meaning in my life

And not be bragging all the time

Because I am supposed be one of those

Who are destined to make it

[Chorus]

Ride without a scheme

Ride without a scheme

After all those years still riding without a scheme

Come on, let me

Ride without a scheme

Ride without a scheme

I want to keep

Riding without a scheme after all those years

I want to

Ride without a scheme

Ride without a scheme

I want to keep

Riding without a scheme after all those years

Ride without a scheme

Ride without a scheme

After all those years still riding without a scheme

[Chorus]

1. refers to the motto "Thre are three things a man should accomplish in his life: 'Build a house, plant a tree and father a son', that has grown to popularity in Germany. Nobody knows where it comes from.
