Flunitrazepam [English translation]

I was born tiny and blue, just like a human

I was created by, a team of the biggest

brains at Hoffman la Roche in Switzerland

That rather earned some cash, than do anything about AIDS

My mission was, you're gonna get people to sleep

If someone takes you it should feel like you've received a gift

So they packed me down, and all my brothers,

and shipped us of to everyone that needed

At last we ended up at, a shelf in a hospital

The warning said mix us and you'll get an insane rush

but when we got descripted was it to a lonely soul

That carried a crushed dream of living well

She got torn apart could barley provide for her son

Poverty was a fact that raised the level

Both stress and worry kept her awake

She begged the doctor if could do anything about it

And the doctor said is it hard, well then you take two

So I ended up standing there in her bathroom cabin

They call me an anesthetizer

They call me a number

And sell me and swallow me I am a real killer

Everyone wants me because I'm so popular

No ones cheaper on the street than roppen is

Everyone wants to take me forget their problems

But I know because I turn your hearts to stone

But you want me because I'm so popular

No ones cheaper on the street than roppen is

And the woman had a son, he was around sixteen

Even him with problems or so said the principal

He only got criticized, (uh) no nice talk

He was stupid he was lazy, it was a constant nagging

And the son was tired, and wished mostly to escape

But the principal was hard and said he had the wrong attitude

He got the worst grade, he was messy and rowdy

He secretly smoked, and he acted badly

His bad self esteem, grew to hatred

The principal hit his fist on the table and said don't come back

The principal called home to Jens's mom instantly

And told her that that he was strongly pissed off

So mom now has to eat two of my blue brothers

To get it to go away, she stands there crying and bleeding

by the bathroom cabin, withe the box of Rohypnoll in her hand

She dropped it on the floor that was were the son found it (ey yo)

The son wakes up early and walks in to the bathroom

He finds me on floor and rinse me with water

He bumble into the kitchen, and finds mom's vodka

He drinks as much as he can, so insanely stupid

Because me and liquor mixes in his stomach and straight up to the brain

I'm starting to get him to feel weak and off

He looks at himself in the mirror, but his eyes are blank

He tries to thinks but gets pretty flimsy thoughts

It now feels like the hates he's carrying is gonna explode

He's resonating, it's all the principal's fault, that he is so fucking pissed

Feels completely reprobated he picks up a knife

and he tries to walk but he wobbles

He falls, accidentally stabs the knife in his stomach

Mom hears the sound and runs into the kitchen newly woken up

She shrieks loud enough to be heard in Switzerland

Ironic that it needs so little effort to ruin yourself

They call me an anesthetizer

They call me a number

And sell me and swallow me I am a real killer

Everyone wants me because I'm so popular

No ones cheaper on the street than roppen is

Everyone wants to take me forget their problems

But I know because I turn your hearts to stone

But you want me because I'm so popular

No ones cheaper on the street than roppen is

So just forget your problems, I turn your heart into a rock

And if you want yo escape then just take, because I'm cheapest in the city

And I have many many names, I put your tall country to sleep

So forget everything that's good, if it's me that you want

(What the fuck)
