Rodeo [English translation]

Rodeo

Yippie Oh

Mojito¹

life has its ups and downs

it's getting on my nerves

I'm sick of walking²

I want the cash to start piling up

I want hot babes

and a little house

and to get it I'll ram my head through the wall

because that's the way out of the gutter and onto the beach

I'm in your face, they're staring at me

I'm going to fuck cross country from cunt to cunt

Go ahead and look, the crown looks good on me, see?

I'm not leaving any time soon, understand?

give me what I deserve

I want to be doing just fine

I'm pulling it off and I want

you to watch while I do it

Another wind is blowing now

because we're different

you can believe me

everything's getting better now, for sure

I'm grabbing the steer by the horns like in a Rodeo

No matter how hard the bull fights, I'm staying on top anyway

Life is like a rodeo

the bull bucks, I say Yippie-o

I'm still sitting on top, pass up that crown

I'll go get my throne and the dough

I'm a top hit, I'm on TV

did you see me, mama

I'm on top

I'm the crème de la crème, papa

it makes you want even more when you really hit it big

but you know there's sure to be a flop or two too

I've had a couple of flops already in my short life

that's when the bartender helped me out, I tossed a couple back

No label would fork out any cash

Babe would have left me

shame on you, you fools

today the masses love me

I start up smoothly

cause I'm in no hurry

a huge cock, that's holy

a huge hummer, I'm not so sure...

I'm over thirty

Every sweetie knows

I don't do killer business

I make children and work hard

I'm the boss, I'm doing great

my band is so phat

that it hurts

you want to block Seeed³?

homey, you'll go out with the trash

if I want to shock Seeed fans

I say Sido is my best friend

Life is like a rodeo

the bull bucks, I say Yippie-o

I'm still sitting on top, pass up that crown

I'll go get my throne and the dough

(2x)

You all like⁴ German ham hocks

I'm a fine white wine

I'm so cool you think

here comes a new ice age

I throw wood in the stove

so the fire stays hot

first comes work

then leisure

from nothing comes nothing

believe me, it's true

now they're listening to my songs

turned up loud in the disco

but that's not enough

I stay busy

it doesn't have to please everyone

shit on that

I get the awards

I rake in the dough

you can't live well

without the dough

I make an effort, man

I stay on the ball

I've gotten a kick out of noticing

that's not so easy for you

So, up on that bull and yippie

I'll break him for you

then you can join in

it's not hard

to climb right to the top

the trick is

to stay on top for very long
