Maschine brennt [English translation]

If it wasn' so sad

terribly sad

one would laugh without end

I'd like to see someone

who can still laugh

once it's burning in the pants

yeah, yeah, check it out

It's not easy to report

where and when

however, it did happen last year

and if I was still alive today

I could testify to how it really was

namely

we get on

the first class sits ready

and everybody's on a comfort seat

a lady without man

recognises me right away

she goes "Rap it to the beat", immediately

i check soberly

not a trace shy

whether her color nail varnish suits her

had I been aware

how it now continues

I would have made other plans (or not)

out stop retour

juts where is my parachute

oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh, oh

out stop moment

the last angel is running

that's no surprise because

the machine's burning

captain Lufverdruss

charming in overload

what the steward tells him doesn't thrill him

I see very clearly

the sky is still blue

who knows how long this bliss remains

only he gets the damage

who then without a parachute

for eleven thousand meters FALLS INTO THE DEPTHS, HOLD ON

out, stop, retour

just where is my parachute
