Auf der guten Seite [English translation]

There's a heap of bad types,

Political bandits and extortionary leasers.

The world is full of unapologetic egotists,

Senseless deadlines, icy slopes.

Wherever you look, everyone seeks profit,

Instead of pure oxygen, too much carbon monoxide.

But before your heart breaks,

Here comes the good news.

You and I and a few other people,

We are on the good side.

You and I and a few other people,

We are on the good side.

Wherever you go and stand, beggars and crooks,

Empty promises, extortionary bills,

False friends, enemies who appear friendly,

Sore losers and folks who tell you to pay up.

As far as the eye can see, bad haircuts,

Pay-per-view cartels, shady agencies.

But before your heart breaks,

Here comes the good news.

You and I and a few other people,

We are on the good side.

You and I and a few other people,

We are on the good side.
