Fenster Lyrics in English Kraftklub

Home / Lyrics Translation / Kraftklub / Fenster

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Fenster by Kraftklub from German to English.

Everything's going better and better in the world

I'm losing patience

Sh*tty weather, no money

The elites are to blame

And the deluded who don't get it

Also think the streaks in the sky are only fighter-jet trails

Everybody wants to change something but only talks about it

Have you ever done a thing for the planet's good?

What will you say when your kids someday ask you

"What did you contribute to solve the problems?"

One thing's clear: This can't go on like this with the country

Don't trust the state, take it into your own hands

But you're not allowed to say stuff like that anymore

Because of all the good people who can't stand the truth

It's not too late

Nobody stops you

You can make a difference

If you truly believe in yourself

Walk your path

Exactly

What they can do, you can too

Jump out the window for me

You can achieve something

You can contribute too

Jump out the window for me

You too can do something good

Do your part

Whether bombs are falling on Afghanistan and Iraq

Once again nobody asked how you're doing

You're standing there empty-handed

You were cheated

You can't change a thing about it

The ones up there are to blame

You're the normal one, all the others are idiots

All those news portals lied to you

Don't trust a single word in any paper

They have their facts but you have your opinion

Walk your path

You have everything you need

It's not too late

You can make a difference

If you truly believe in yourself

Jump out the window for me

You can achieve something

You can contribute too

Jump out the window for me

You too can do something good

Do your part

Jump!

Jump, jump, jump, jump

Jump!

Jump, jump, jump, jump

Jump, jump, jump

Jump out the window for me

For me, for me, for me, for me

Jump out the window for me

For me, for me, for me, for me

Jump out the window for me

You can achieve something too

You can contribute too

Jump out the window for me

You too can do something good

Do your part

You too can do something good

Do your part

SONG MEANING

Feeling frustrated with politics, money, and the weather? 'Fenster' channels that irritation, but Kraftklub don’t offer a heroic battle cry. Instead, they parody the loudest voices of online soapboxes: the ones who blame 'the elites', distrust every newspaper, and insist they alone see the truth. Over buzzing guitars, the verses tick off familiar grievances - bad weather, empty wallets, corrupt leaders - while mocking conspiracy clichés about jet trails in the sky. The band holds up a mirror to the listener, asking the uncomfortable question: What are you actually doing to help?

Then comes the punch line: the chorus repeats 'Spring aus dem Fenster für mich' ('Jump out the window for me'). It is a darkly comic dare, exposing how hollow grand slogans become when pushed to their logical extreme. By telling us to literally jump, Kraftklub underline the absurdity of shouting for change without real action, and the danger of following populist calls blindly. The result is a satirical anthem that invites you to think twice, laugh a little, and maybe channel your energy into something more useful than... well, a leap out the window.
