Warum machst du dir 'n Kopf? 00:08
Wovor hast du Schiss? 00:10
Was gibt's da zu grübeln? 00:11
Was hast du gegen dich? 00:13
Ich versteh dich nicht 00:16

01:41
Komm mal raus aus deiner Deckung 01:43
Ich seh schon, wie es blitzt 01:45

Du mit Lächeln im Gesicht 01:52

[English]
Why are you worrying?
What are you scared of?
What is there to ponder?
What do you have against yourself?
I don't understand you
You always see things negatively
And hold yourself back with it
Nothing is good enough
You're kicking yourself out
When will you stop doing that?
How I see you is incomprehensible to you
Come on, I'll show you
I'll make it rain confetti for you
I'll shower you with it
Shout your name from all the speakers
You're the best person
I'll roll out the red carpet
Through the city, to your house
You're the one for me
And the choirs are singing for you
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
And the choirs are singing for you
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
And the choirs are singing for you
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
...
Stop defending yourself
It doesn't make any sense
You still have confetti
In the crease on your forehead
Why don't you want to understand?
...
Come out of your shell
I can already see it sparkling
Let me see it briefly
I've almost forgotten what it's like
You with a smile on your face
How I see you is incomprehensible to you
Come on, I'll show you
I'll make it rain confetti for you
I'll shower you with it
Shout your name from all the speakers
You're the best person
I'll roll out the red carpet
Through the city, to your house
You're the one for me
And the choirs are singing for you
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
And the choirs are singing for you
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
And the choirs are singing for you
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
...
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
And the trumpets are playing for you
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
And the drums are ringing for you
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
And the choirs are singing for you
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
