Der Mann ist das Problem [English translation]

Who considers himself the greatest

Ever since this world's been turning?

Who's splitting the atom

Until the whole country burns?

Who drives like crazy

Pushing on the highway?

Who is too scared to go to the dentist

But has no qualms starting wars?

Yes, it's man1

Oh yeah, man

Who is lecturing you on his honor

While simultaneously cheating the state?

Who visits brothels

And invented celibacy?

Who's playing with handgrenades

And puts fire to the jungle?

Who keeps his car clean

And pollutes the oceans?

It's man

Oh yeah, man

This happens to be the truth

He's the failure in the system

Man

Is the problem

Who creates nuclear MCA's

In more places than just Fukishima?

Who does not listen a bit

To what his wife says, as a matter of principle?

Who's a know-it-all

Running amok every now and then?

Who's making peace deals

While purchasing new weapons?

It's man

Oh yeah, man

Hole in the ozone layer, espionage, well versed in drug deals

Mafia or Camorra - if he's gonna do something

He's doing it on a grand scale

Primitive bar room jokes

Raging delusions of grandeur

If he's causing an oil spill

It's other people's fault

That's what man is like

Oh yeah, man

This happens to be the truth

He's the failure in the system

Man

Is the problem

He's a dictator, a Rambo, a bureaucrat

A con artist, a skyjacker

Unfaithful, cheeky, lazy, too

Yet women love him in spite of all that

This happens to be the truth

He's the failure in the system

Man

Is the problem

This happens to be the truth

He's the failure in the system

Man

Is the problem

1. Referring to the male gender, not "man" as placeholder for humans in general.
