Kinder an die Macht [English translation]

Their armies consist of gummy bears

Their tanks are made of marzipan

With them wars are eaten up

A simple plan - ingenious in an infantile way

For them there is no "good" and there is no "evil"

They don't categorize in "black" and "white".

There are tooth spaces. Instead of oppression:

There'll be strawberry ice cream for the rest of their lives

They have always something up their sleeves ...

Let the children take over

Expedience is not their diplomacy

The world should be controlled by children

Put an end to gloom!

They overpower us with their laughter

Power to the children!

They are the genuine anarchists

They love chaos, create disorder

They don't know neither rights nor duties

Their energy is yet unbroken,

Bold pride in abundance

Let the children take over

Expedience is not their diplomacy

The world should be controlled by children

Put an end to gloom!

They overpower us with their laughter

Power to the children!
