Lichter aus [English translation]

Ah, how good it feels - we're helping

Apart from that we're going on like before

Tuning out your conscience

Isn't so difficult

Things are running like clockwork - honestly,

Still on the rails and doing pretty good

Sure, looked at in too much light

you might see a bit of anger.

Ah - forget - it!

They stay outside, we're inside

The party's on in our house

We're simply celebrating the act of forgetting

Last one out turn off the lights.

We're world champions in forgetting things

How much we love to fool ourselves

And if someone opens up our eyes

We'll shut them behind the nearest door.

And it would often have been so easy

For things to have gone another way

But against that, always excuses

Humans are innately comfortable

They stay outside, we're inside

The party's on in our house

We're simply celebrating the the act of forgetting

Last one out turn off the lights.

We're simply celebrating the the act of forgetting

Last one out turn off the lights.

Into the darkness

slowly creeps a premonition

How it was and how it would be

if you turned the principle around

Clever heads are making plans

Skilful hands are building a new house

Joy is celebrating a party here

And no-one's turning the lights off

They stay outside, we're inside

The party's on in our house

We're simply celebrating the the act of forgetting

Last one out turn off the lights.

We're simply celebrating the the act of forgetting

Last one out turn off the lights.
