Männer [English translation]

(Lauterbach, Luth, Schrader, Warns, von Hacht)

Men - whether blond, brown or henna(-red)

It does not matter whether you're a manager or a tramp

There is a lack of trust between us and the women

There is a fraction but no common denominator

When they spot a woman driving some men say

That seems a bit fishy to him and it's certainly going to be expensive

But there are women as well that maintain their prejudice

That I'm a macho who's brain is in the pants

Equal rights do not automatically mean the right to empower

I think the boys are not as bad as

You might think

I have even cried in my life

I am you friend not your foe

But many people say a man is a softie

If he takes such a thing

Because something makes him feel blue

If a man does not climb the ladder (of job)

It would be a severe degradation of his reputation

Protest and spit on social pressure

Stay at home if you want like the fly Puck

Until pregnant men belong to the normal course of life

And before you get it you're an emancipated as a man

As a real man

I am a man - a real man

Am I a man? - a real man

I am a man - a real man

Man and woman, woman and man, so many unexplained questions

man, where shall a start? Okay a difference between he and she

Is clearly to see in the anatomy

But furthermore it's hard to decide

What's a rumour and what's fact

I for example am frequently told

Women are more sensitive because men don't feel it

Men are sex obsessed, women far from it

Mh mh, guys, my experiences are different

And I don't believe that as a man you think more logical

I can't believe it, because my brain does not cope with logic

And other clichés are quite often also wrong

But nevertheless this topic doesn't stop to bother me

Sometimes I wonder, how is it really?

Is it all a lie or in what am I different?

Are we really the same/equal or entirely different

different feelings or the same in loving?

I can't tell you but if somebody can

Tell me cos I am King Boris and a real man

A real man

I am a man - a real man

Am I a man? - a real man

I am a man - a real man

I am a man not a woman and not an eunuch

I did not chose that and sometimes I did curse it

When I see the men's image in this country

Then I can hardly believe it, it hurts so much

nah, alas, how they see me

That's not me, I don't fit in this cliché

Constantly manly, always with a boner

And then there are women who expect exactly this

I'm no moustache wearer, know-it-all,

Car carer, piss-while-standing

No tieonputter, knife drawer,

Child maltreater, chief oppressor

I can't stand them either, those macho sayings like

Women's place is in the at the hearth in the kitchen

Because if you look at it a little closer

The chef in the restaurant is not a woman

Man and macho is not the same

It's getting on my nerves this fussing about image

I can tell you one thing: when you compare men and women

It's propably not harder to be a man

But it's not easy either

I am a man - a real man

I am a man - a real man

Am I a man? - a real man

I am a man - a real man
