Gabi Und Klaus Lyrics in English Die Prinzen

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Gabi Und Klaus by Die Prinzen from German to English.
Gabi longs
Longs for Klaus
But Klaus just coolly says
"It's over!"
Gabi has to cry
Her heart grows so heavy
But Klaus just coolly says
"I don't want you anymore"
Gabi is lonely, terribly alone
She thinks of Klaus and tells herself "he's so mean"
Wants to forget him and to make that happen
She runs through the rain and sings this song
Life is cruel and terribly mean
Life is cruel and Klaus is a pig
Life is cruel and terribly mean
Life is cruel and Klaus is a pig
But suddenly Klaus realizes
How he loves Gabi
He goes to her, hopes she'll forgive him
He stands before her, turns red with embarrassment
But she just coolly says
"Get lost, you idiot!"
Klaus is lonely now
Terribly alone
He thinks of Gabi and tells himself
"She's so mean"
Wants to forget her and to make that happen
He runs through the rain and sings this song
Life is cruel and terribly mean
Life is cruel and Gabi's a pig
Life is cruel and terribly mean
Life is cruel and Gabi's a pig

SONG MEANING

Gabi und Klaus is a cheeky little drama that plays out like a soap opera in under three minutes. Poor Gabi pines for Klaus, but he shrugs and ends the relationship with a cold “Es ist aus!” Heart-broken, she races through the rain wailing that “life is cruel and Klaus is a pig.” Just when she has finally sung the pain away, Klaus realizes his mistake, runs back drenched in regret, and – surprise – gets the same icy dismissal. Now he is the lonely one sprinting through puddles, switching the lyrics to “Gabi’s a pig” while insisting that life is still terribly unfair.

The song is a playful reminder that love can flip faster than you can change a chorus line. With slap-stick repetition and catchy insults, Die Prinzen poke fun at the roller-coaster of teenage emotions: one moment you are the victim, the next you are the villain. In the end nobody wins, but everyone gets a memorable hook to shout in the rain – proof that heartbreak can be hilarious when put to a bouncy beat.
