Berlin [English translation]

It stinks & it's loud & also hectic

& so comically electric

That is what I don't like about the city

I hear out of a car fat basses

They get (me) full in the face

& it's clear to me, that today's not going to be today

Standing right under the linden tree

(I) want to leave, when they finally let me

I feel how my blood pressure rises

I'm stressed out, stuck in a traffic jam

Then I suddenly see this woman

& I can't believe it

Because her eyes have shown me

There is sun-sun-sun sun in Berlin

I look briefly in her face

& believe, she doesn't notice me

She looks up, I put myself in the no waiting zone

I swim through the crowds

(I) can't touch them

I'm being shoved & naturally the lights stay red

I see the paleness of a traffic warden

But sadly I have no interest

she thinks, she controls the traffic here

I'm only looking for such a woman

That will turn the sky suddenly grey

& wet the streets for me here

& there is rain-rain-rain rain in Berlin

& now something happened that nobody believed (in Schonefeld)

I actually drive everyday into the capital (to Lichtenberg)

I stand amongst a thousand people all alone (in Tempelhof)

& I hope so much that I'll finally find my...

Love-love-love love in Berlin
