Frauen Sind Die Neuen Männer Lyrics in English Die Prinzen

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Frauen Sind Die Neuen Männer by Die Prinzen from German to English.
A lot has changed in this world
And it's becoming clear what's causing all of it
So many women today are like men
I can hardly see a difference anymore
They have money and drive fast cars
And after sex some disappear without a sound
They wage war and they sell drugs
They're brutal on their way to the top
They've got power and play better football
They make history and fly into space
Women are the new men
I can hardly see a difference anymore
They're like our beautiful doppelgängers
I wonder why we still exist
Women are the new men
It's already like this almost everywhere in the world
They can do everything and they live longer
I wonder if I like that
They've lied to us endlessly
Much more often, too, than we've cheated them in return
They fool around, they separate sex and love
They're generals, and some master thieves
On the phone they're brief and abrupt
They get by perfectly well on their own
They want us only for our looks
Pay the bills when they go out with us
Women are the new men
I can hardly see a difference
They're like our beautiful doppelgängers
I wonder why we still exist
Women are the new men
It's already like this almost everywhere in the world
They can do everything, and they live longer
I wonder if I like that
They drink a lot, even there they're ahead of us
They can survive alone in the wild
They take no joy in monogamy
And even in bed they sometimes come too soon
Women are the new men
I can hardly see a difference
They're like our beautiful doppelgängers
I wonder what we're still here for
Men are the new women
They cry in secret and let themselves get beaten up
While women today dare to do anything
Women are the new men
It's already like this almost everywhere in the world
They can do everything and they live longer
I wonder if I like that
Women are the new men
I can hardly see a difference
They're like our beautiful doppelgängers
I wonder why we even still exist
Women are the new men
And yet I've fallen in love again

SONG MEANING

Frauen sind die neuen Männer is Die Prinzen’s tongue-in-cheek anthem about the great gender role plot twist of the modern world. The singer looks around and sees women doing everything men were once praised for: earning big money, driving sports cars, flying into space, even waging wars and cheating in love. With every line he jokingly ticks off another “male” stereotype that has switched teams, while men, he claims, now sit on the softer side of the spectrum, secretly crying and getting pushed around.

Behind the playful exaggeration lies a smart social commentary. By flipping clichés on their heads, the band pokes fun at how arbitrary those old labels really are and invites us to rethink what “masculine” and “feminine” mean today. The final twist—he falls in love again anyway—reminds us that attraction and relationships do not fit neatly into outdated boxes. In short, the song is a catchy, humorous reflection on shifting power dynamics and the ongoing dance toward true equality.
