K.B.A.G. [English translation]

Always on the road, I am sleepless in Berlin

Weak calves between clouds of nicotine

Like a king without a crown, without power

Only the stamps on the wrists, insignia of night

I need a penguin with overweight,

that breaks the ice for me, because I can't

And I don't feel like smalltalk and bad jokes

Not in the mood, but on the guest list

Where do you consider yourselves in one hundred years?

Still without future and without a plan

We need a hook, that touches everyone immedately

And we need lyrics, everyone understands right away

And we need a song, that works on the radio

With a fanbase, that consumes extensively

We need a corporate identity

A look and the right anatomy

We need a hit, that pays our rent

And where do we find a feature, no one cares about?

Tell me, if there's seat between the seats?

There's enough space, to feel out of place

We swing between flop and top

Between backstage and stage, between athlete's foot and TV shows

Too pretty for indie, to obscene for the mainstream

Always inbetween, yet you can get used to it

It's fine how it is, it shall stay as it is

We don't have to find ourselves, we're always at the bar

No award, yet being nominated a gazillion times

Like half-stiff, never fully erect

And no one can tell you, what happens next

In the charts for once, yet dodging the fair again tomorrow

We need a hook, that touches everyone immedately

And we need lyrics, everyone understands right away

And we need a song, that works on the radio

With a fanbase, that consumes extensively

We need a corporate identity

A look and the right anatomy

We need a hit, that pays our rent

And where do we find a feature, no one cares about?
