Lyrics:

[Deutsch]

[English]

This is Seeed ya

This is Seeed ya

Everybody wake up

Everybody wake up

Forget your strive

Forget your struggles

Embrace life and check this

Embrace life and check this out

Yau, Die Nacht ist vorbei

Yau, the night is over

Die bösen Geister sind weg

The bad spirits are gone

Ich kipp' dich ausm Bett

I’ll get you out of bed

Und mach Kaffee der tote Tanten weckt

And make coffee that wakes the dead

Sind schön angezeckt

We’re looking good

Löschen unsern Brand mit Sekt

We’ll quench our fire with champagne

Wir fahr'n an Strand - das Leben fiebert,

We’re heading to the beach - life is buzzing,

Wir haben uns angesteckt

We’ve caught the vibe

Gestern war's so kalt,

Yesterday it was so cold,

Heute ist es heiß

Today it’s hot

Sonne macht geil und weil das so ist

The sun makes it exciting and because of that

Scheint sie heute zum Beweis

It shines today as proof

Das Radio klingt feist,

The radio sounds great,

Gestern war in den Top 10 Scheiss,

Yesterday was crap in the top 10,

Heute ist die Liste heiss

Today the list is hot

Und du tanzt,

And you dance,

Dass ich Gott für deine Kiste preis'

That I praise God for your box

Baby wach auf, ich zähl' bis 10

Baby wake up, I’ll count to 10

Das Leben will einen ausgeb'n

Life wants to celebrate

Und dass will ich seh'n

And I want to see that

Lass uns endlich raus geh'n

Let’s finally go out

Das Radio aufdreh'n

Turn up the radio

Das wird unser Tag Baby

This will be our day baby

Wenn wir aufsteh'n

When we get up

Steh auf jetzt oder nie, Girl zu viel geschlafen

Get up now or never, girl, you’ve slept too much

Und das Leben ist halb vorbei

And life is half over

Ich steh drauf wie du tanzt zu dem Lied

I’m into how you dance to this song

Wir holen uns zurück was irgendwann auf der Strecke blieb

We’ll take back what was lost along the way

I'm sad

I'm sad

I want to see your funny side again make me laugh and

I want to see your funny side again, make me laugh and

Take me to your heart where it all began

Take me to your heart where it all began

Make a new start

Make a new start

I promise i'll do all i can for this is the very last chance

I promise I’ll do all I can for this is the very last chance

To let our love light shine again

To let our love light shine again

Komm wach auf, ich zähl bis 10

Come wake up, I’ll count to 10

Das Leben will einen ausgeb'n

Life wants to celebrate

Und das will ich seh'n

And I want to see that

Lass uns endlich raus geh'n

Let’s finally go out

Das Radio aufdreh'n

Turn up the radio

Das wird unser Tag Baby

This will be our day baby

Wenn wir aufsteh'n

When we get up

Wake up woman,

Wake up woman,

There's something that i want you to see

There’s something that I want you to see

A brand new you and me

A brand new you and me

Here just waitin to be

Here just waiting to be

Here is my hand

Here is my hand

And meet me half of the way

And meet me halfway

Sweatheart we're sharing this day

Sweetheart, we’re sharing this day

And i don't wish to stay

And I don’t wish to stay

The way that i am,

The way that I am,

I see the circumstances are strange

I see the circumstances are strange

How i want you to change,

How I want you to change,

But still stay the same

But still stay the same

The less that we talk,

The less that we talk,

The more time to try

The more time to try

And while you were sleeping,

And while you were sleeping,

Time passed by

Time passed by

Oh Baby lass uns geh'n

Oh baby, let’s go

Das Leben will einen ausgeb'n

Life wants to celebrate

Und dass will ich seh'n

And I want to see that

Lass uns endlich aufsteh'n

Let’s finally get up

Das Radio aufdreh'n

Turn up the radio

Dazu werden wir tanzen

We’ll dance to that

Und dazu gut ausseh'n

And look good doing it

Komm wach auf ich zähl bis 10

Come wake up, I’ll count to 10

Das Leben will einen ausgeb'n

Life wants to celebrate

Und dass will ich seh'n

And I want to see that

Lass uns endlich rausgehn

Let’s finally go out

Das Radio aufdreh'n

Turn up the radio

Das wird unser Tag

This will be our day

Wenn wir endlich aufsteh'n

When we finally get up
