Augen Lyrics in English Von Wegen Lisbeth

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Augen by Von Wegen Lisbeth from German to English.
Verse 1
I've got feet for walking
Legs for the sprint
Fists for rebelling
Hair for the wind
Hands for gesturing
Bones for frustration
Nerves just to lose them
Lips for lust
But, but, but eyes
I've only got for you
But, but, but eyes
I've only got for you
Verse 2
Teeth for just in case
Thumbs only to twiddle them
Kidneys for cash
Gums to walk on
A tongue to try things
Shoulders for empathy
One lung for inhaling
Cheeks for euphoria
But, but, but eyes
I've only got for you
But, but, but eyes
I've only got for you
But, but, but eyes
I've only got for you
But, but, but eyes
I've only got for you

SONG MEANING

“Augen” turns the human body into a quirky inventory list. The singer ticks through feet for strolling, fists for rebellion, even gums to “walk on” when money is tight. Each line paints a vivid, sometimes cheeky picture of what every part is supposed to do, creating a fun catalog of life’s everyday actions and emotions.

Yet after all that multitasking, one phrase keeps breaking through: “Aber Augen hab ich nur für dich” – “But eyes, I have only for you.” It is a playful love confession wrapped in wit. No matter how many roles the rest of the body plays, the eyes stay locked on one person. The result is an upbeat, slightly rebellious love song that celebrates focus and devotion in the most light-hearted way.
