Jetzt [explizit] [English translation]

Maeckes:

(Yeah)

We’re sitting on sleeping bags

on the roofs of cars

looking at the stars

emptying the trash out of our internal minds

explaining the universe as giant glory holes 1

joking about God

and whether Boris Becker really has more followers 2

on Twitter; ach, the world is so flat, we’re laughing

‘cause there’s barely anything better,

except maybe fucking

except maybe – there isn’t anything.

Each of us is just a pixel

and only together there’s a picture.

We just want five minutes in heaven.

I just want that we remember

“today” becomes the “back then” for our kids.

Hook:

If our children start to complain someday, “Everything was a lot better back then,” 3

then they mean now, now, now, now, now, now

now – again

If our children start to complain someday, “Everything was a lot better back then,”

then they mean now, now, now, now, now, now

now, now.

Plan B:

We stood on landmines

we couldn’t move on,

jabbered on about life,

the horizon just a small candle,

ah, fuck it.

At some point, I would have smoked anyway,

give me a drag. 4

As always, it drags the teenagers onto the street

each with his own future in front of his face. 5

Whether it’s just a phase

or whether the world goes under,

we’ll surely have to tell our kids later.

Tua:

I’m walking along the never-ending suburb with a hangover between yellow fields; it’s somewhere, sometime, without a clear destination, completely lost

in thought like you just can’t let go of the inner emptiness.

I would have never thought that I’d get so old

‘cause by my mid twenties, I already felt like half my life was over. I touch grass only to check it, whether I feel anything and if I’m still alive, still feels like back then,

whether it’s still there.

The sun is slowly turning red;

funny, I just thought it was high in the

sky.

As the days go by

I’m already thinking

turn off onto an unending straight and narrow path.

Hook:

If our children start to complain someday, “Everything was a lot better back then,”

then they mean now, now, now, now, now, now

now – again

If our children start to complain someday, “Everything was a lot better back then,”

then they mean now, now, now, now, now, now

now, now.

Kaas:

(Yeah)

It’s 2038,

30 years of Die Orsons,

anniversary party at Bartek’s place 6

Gold and platinum are hanging on the walls,

we’re drinking to our success and the great times.

Our young adult kids are secretly toking in the 7

backyard,

and Maeckes says what people are wearing today will be embarrassing in a few years;

meanwhile, his eyes glide over old, beautiful, framed Orsons photos.

At the same time, the dope-head gang in the backyard is reasoning philosophy that all of the records back then had a lot more soul, and why nobody else manages to get the Autotune effect like Lil’ Wayne and Kanye West; now

that was good music.

Hook x 2:

If our children start to complain someday, “Everything was a lot better back then,”

then they mean now, now, now, now, now, now

now – again

If our children start to complain someday, “Everything was a lot better back then,”

then they mean now, now, now, now, now, now

now, now.
