Wenn ich ein Junge wär [English translation]

If I were a boy,

That would be beautiful!

I could be wearing trousers

Every single day.

And if I'd be coming home late at night

There wouldn't be a reason to make a drama out of it!

Everything would be half as difficult,

If I were a boy.

But as soon as Tino, Tino, Tino kisses me

And Tino, Tino caresses me

Just with Tino, Tino, Tino I remember

How nice it is

To be a Piccolina, Bambina, a Si-Si- Signorina!

If I were a boy

And had a motorbike

Soon everybody in the whole town

Would take notice of me.

I'd join the local football club

And I'm sure, I'd make a great centre forward!

That's about how it would be

If I were a boy

But as soon as Tino, Tino, Tino kisses me

And Tino, Tino caresses me

Just with Tino, Tino, Tino I remember

How nice it is

To be a Piccolina, Bambina, a Si-Si- Signorina!

If I were a boy

You bet that I would know

What such a young boy must do

When he is in love.

I wouldn't have a concubine

But would be true to just one girl.

Everything would be half as difficult,

If I were a boy.
