These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Als in paris '71 jim morrison verstarb
When in paris '71 jim morrison died
Sah ich meine schwestern weinen, als ich aus der schule kam
I saw my sisters crying when I came out of school
Keine acht jahre später war ich selbst den tränen nah
Less than eight years later, I was close to the tears myself
Als sid vicious seinen löffel viel zu früh abgab
When sid vicious gave up his spoon far too early
Von da an war mir klar
From then on, I knew
Dass das musikantenleben saugefährlich war
That the musician's life was so-dangerous
Als bon scott 1980 im alkohol ertrinkt
When bon scott drowned in alcohol in 1980
Hab' ich selber schwer zu kämpfen mit meinem ersten acidtrip
Have I myself struggling with my first acidtrip
Und ich weiß noch ganz genau, wie traurig wir alle waren
And I remember how sad we all were
Als rex guildo '99 aus seinem fenster sprang
When rex guildo '99 jumped out of his window
Es war ein schock, ein böser traum
It was a shock, an evil dream
Die ganze welt war kalt und grau
The whole world was cold and grey
Wir waren traurig einen sommer lang
We were sad a summer long
Wir gaben unsere unschuld auf
We gave up our innocence
Wir waren jung, wir waren blau
We were young, we were blue
Wir waren traurig einen sommer lang
We were sad a summer long
Einen sommer lang
A summer long
Und als man michael jackson tot in seiner bude fand
And when michael jackson was found dead in his stall
Sah ich die menschen moonwalk tanzen auf ibiza am strand
I saw the people moonwalk dancing on ibiza on the beach
Drum möcht' ich, dass ihr wisst
So I want you to know
Dass das musikantenleben kein zuckerschlecken ist
That the musician's life is not a sugar-coating
