Wer isn' der Typ bloß, den du da Dendemann nennst?
Who is that guy you call Dendemann?
Stinkt nach Mythos, stinkt nach latenter Latenz
Smells of myth, smells of latent latency
Du bist frei, wie der Willen, immer wenn du dran denkst
You are free, like the will, whenever you think about it
Doch fühlst Schweige und Stille im eigenen Film, dessen Ende du kennst
But you feel silence and quiet in your own movie, whose end you know
Spätzünder ja, aber Blindgänger nein
Late bloomer yes, but no dud
Doch all die abertausend Gründe waren und sind streng geheim
But all the thousands of reasons were and are strictly secret
Denn er hat immer Vorfahrt, der dringende Reim
Because the urgent rhyme always has priority
Ich war nie sehr wortkarg, ich hab meine Sportart und bin hier daheim
I was never very quiet, I have my sport and I'm at home here
Ich dende, also bin ich, nur so nackt wie ich mich fühl
I Dende, therefore I am, only as naked as I feel
Und das war's schon mit meiner Planung und meinem taktischen Kalkül
And that's it with my planning and my tactical calculation
Denn ich dende also bin ich, bin ich mir selbst genug
Because I Dende, therefore I am, I am enough for myself
Nach vorn ist nach wie vor die schnellste Flucht
Forward is still the fastest escape
Ich dende, also bin ich
I Dende, therefore I am
Ich dende, also bin ich
I Dende, therefore I am
Ich dende, also bin ich, dende, also bin ich wer (wer)
I Dende, therefore I am, Dende, therefore I am someone (who)
Ich dende, also bin ich
I Dende, therefore I am
Ich dende, also bin ich
I Dende, therefore I am
Ich dende, also bin ich, Dendemann was will ich mehr (mehr)
I Dende, therefore I am, Dendemann, what more do I want (more)
Ich dende, also bin ich, was will ich mehr
I Dende, therefore I am, what more do I want
Ich dende, also bin ich, was will ich mehr
I Dende, therefore I am, what more do I want
Ich dende, also bin ich, was will ich mehr
I Dende, therefore I am, what more do I want
Was will ich mehr?
What more do I want?
Ich bin, ich bin
I am, I am
Na, wie gehts denn weiter?
Well, what happens next?
Kein so-tun-als-ob, nur als ob nix dabei war
No pretending, only as if nothing happened
'N klitzekleiner witzgescheiter Geistesblitzableiter
A tiny, witty, clever flash-of-genius diverter
Aber die meisten Spitzenreiter waren dummdreiste Sitzenbleiber
But most frontrunners were stupidly audacious repeaters
Mensch, dass bisschen Mathe muss man zu schätzen wissen
Man, you have to appreciate that little bit of math
Wer hätte damit rechnen können, auch ich will nur den letzten bissen
Who could've expected that, I too only want the last bite
Lange Rede, große Worte schrei ich kurz und klein
Long speech, big words, I scream them to smithereens
Nein, nicht nur zum Schein, bin mit mei'm Schmutz im Rein'
No, not just for show, I'm clear with my dirt
Ah, manchmal nervt es
Ah, sometimes it's annoying
Manchmal machts gefühlskrank
Sometimes it makes you emotionally sick
Mehr oder weniger gähnende Leere da nachts vor'm Kühlschrank
More or less yawning emptiness there at night in front of the fridge
Doch ich dende, also hab ich wieder was draus gelernt
But I Dende, so I've learned something from it again
Immer schön einen Steinwurf vom Glashaus entfernt
Always a nice stone's throw away from the glasshouse
Ich dende, also bin ich
I Dende, therefore I am
Ich dende, also bin ich
I Dende, therefore I am
Ich dende, also bin ich, dende, also bin ich wer (wer)
I Dende, therefore I am, Dende, therefore I am someone (who)
Ich dende, also bin ich
I Dende, therefore I am
Ich dende, also bin ich
I Dende, therefore I am
Ich dende, also bin ich, Dendemann was will ich mehr (mehr)
I Dende, therefore I am, Dendemann, what more do I want (more)
Ich dende, also bin ich, was will ich mehr
I Dende, therefore I am, what more do I want
Ich dende, also bin ich, was will ich mehr
I Dende, therefore I am, what more do I want
Ich dende, also bin ich, was will ich mehr
I Dende, therefore I am, what more do I want
Was will ich mehr?
What more do I want?
Ich dende, also was will ich mehr
I Dende, so what more do I want
Dendemann
Dendemann
Ich dende, also was will ich mehr
I Dende, so what more do I want
Dendemann

Oh

(Oh)
(Oh)
(Oh)

Blindgängerdud / unexploded ordnance

Blindgänger literally translates to "dud" or "unexploded ordnance," often referring to a bomb that failed to detonate. It's a striking and somewhat unusual word to find in a song.

In this context, Dendemann uses it metaphorically to describe himself. He says, "Spätzünder ja, aber Blindgänger nein" (Late bloomer yes, but a dud no). This implies that while he might have taken his time to get started, he is certainly not a failure or someone who won't achieve his potential. It's a clever and self-assured declaration.
