X [English translation]

It's 22 o'clock, the drinks are tempered

And the boys climb over my Nikes in the hallway

Freshly showered, hand into the gel, once through the hair

And then we meet our girls on tour

Elderflower, mint, lime and sparkling wine

Singstar "Augen zu"1 knowing every line of the lyrics

Everyone crowds in front of the mirror

Gloss "Dior", Rouge of "Mac"

Playing dress up and the outfit fits perfectly at the end

We start and we'll see

A magnet is contracting us together

We stay kids for a lifetime with a dream in every hand

Just what girls do

Just what boys do

We draw an "X" on every wall

There, where we once were

Just what girls do

Just what boys do

Just what boys do

Just what girls do

We'll never grow up, even in sopping wet jackets

Just what boys do

Just what girls do

We're standing in the rain and laugh, like shining shadows

It's midnight

And our playground is the neighbourhood

Some sing high

The others low

And the echoes from the house walls sound pretty flat

Let's fly together

Even if it's only to the ground2

We will never arrive - we're already there

Because it never was about one day for us

With the head through every wall

We jump as far as you can look

We stay kids for a lifetime

with a dream in every hand

Just what girls do

Just what boys do

We draw an "X" on every wall

There, where we once were

Just what girls do

Just what boys do

Just what boys do

Just what girls do

We'll never grow up, even in sopping wet jackets

Just what boys do

Just what girls do

We're standing in the rain and laugh, like shining shadows

Rain is silver

Our time is golden

We carve our names

Into a burning piece of wood

Just what boys do

Just what girls do

We'll never grow up, even in sopping wet jackets

Just what boys do

Just what girls do

We're standing in the rain and laugh, like shining shadows

We stay kids for a lifetime

with a dream in every hand

We draw an "X" on every wall
