Egoist [English translation]

(Chorus)

The whole world turns around me,

for I am just a selfishman,

the man who's closest to me,

it's me, I am a selfishman (x2)

On the very top of the list

yeah, there, it's written me,

and you have to forgive me,

but I love myself,

that although I'm exceedingly and

thoroughly critical,

I have all good long day

only - me in my mind.

I have fixed above my bed

a mirror,

so that my own reflexion

guards my sleep

and I don't wanna want anybody,

no - I want you to want me

until I get what I need

I never keep calm.

Chorus:

The whole world turns around me,

for I am just a selfishman,

the man who's closest to me,

it's me, I am a selfishman (x2)

Love derives from to love

and I start with myself

and with a bit of luck

it'll be your turn one day.

I give to my ego

daily the special cure,

but mostly I give everything to me

and preferably pure ... sure.

Every day on which my world image longer exists

I recognize myself

and I fall in love anew.

The stars write my name

on the firmament

so that it burns brightly in your eyes

Chorus:

The whole world turns around me,

for I am just a selfishman,

the man who's closest to me,

it's me, I am a selfishman (x2)

What is he,

what has he,

what can he,

what does he do,

what does he talk,

who does he believe that he is? (x2)

The whole world turns around me,

for I am just a selfishman,

the man who's closest to me,

it's me, I am a selfishman (x2)

The whole world turns around me (x2)

What is he,

what has he,

what can he,

what does he do,

what does he talk,

who does he believe that he is? (x6)
