Chemie Chemie Ya [English translation]

Dude you've got blood coming out of your nose,

Off the face and straight onto the street.

Flown too much, snorted too much

Look, the problems, so small from up here.

MDMA, Amphetamine

I've heard that's how they do it in Berlin.

I've not slept in days - am I in love?

Or are the palpitations actually from the speed?

The hashish is filled with lead1, whatever, put it in the bong

I take everything I can get my hands on

I've grown ten metres, the world is Lego

The city is too small for me and my ego

And no night for anyone,

No night for me

Because I'm still awake

And I'm just waiting for you

I can't cope,

I don't get along with anyone anymore

Are you coming?

Chemistry chemistry yeah, chemistry ya, chemistry yay

Chemistry chemistry, chemistry chemistry (x4)

The owls come out when the sun sets

Thirty degrees in the shade but everything is covered in snow2

I need to talk to you even if you don't understand me.

Do you know if it's still after hours anywhere?

I'm hanging around drooling like Jabba the Hutt

A bitter taste is running down my throat

What's happening? The pills wake you up

The whole city is wearing sunglasses at night

And I'm fine, if you're looking for me

I'm in withdrawal or under a train

I've been dancing for hours, I'm dancing alone

But wait man, the bassline is about to drop!

Chemistry chemistry yeah, chemistry ya, chemistry yay

Chemistry chemistry, chemistry chemistry (x4)

And no night for anyone,

No night for me

Because I'm still awake

And I'm just waiting for you

I can't cope,

I don't get along with anyone anymore

Are you coming?

Chemistry chemistry yeah, chemistry ya, chemistry yay

Chemistry chemistry, chemistry chemistry (x4)

Chemistry chemistry, chemistry chemistry (x4)

1. After some (read: a lot of) research, I discovered that hashish is often sold as little disks which are stretched with lead. I went for a literal translation and decided to add this footnote2. I decided to leave this as snow as I think it also similarly understood in English to mean cocaine.
