Nonverbale Kommunikation Lyrics in English Wise Guys

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Nonverbale Kommunikation by Wise Guys from German to English.

At certain times in certain places

every spoken word is

already one word too many

Silence has more style

If your dream woman invites you

to be at her place for the first time

and after the third wine pulls you

by the shirt into the bedroom

then you can make big speeches

can deliver a long lecture

about love and such beautiful things

with words that sound fantastic

but in this case it'd be better

to choose

non-verbal communication

Non-verbal communication

If you want to go into a bar

where only Schalke fans are standing

I strongly recommend

refraining from certain things

Never say, even if it's true

'Schalke plays absolute crap!'

or that you're a Dortmund fan

unless you're a masochist

because otherwise you're sure to get as reward

a beating

Non-verbal communication

an exchange of a very special kind

Non-verbal communication

showing feelings without words!

When you're on stage

and think it'd be cool now

out of euphoria while singing

to jump straight into the crowd

if the people standing there then

suddenly step aside

and instead of joining in nicely

laugh loudly at the impact

then you're right: that's a kind

of scorn in the form of

non-verbal communication

Non-verbal communication

If someone throws a pie at you

Non-verbal communication

that's a statement without words

Non-verbal communication

SONG MEANING

Nonverbale Kommunikation is a cheeky, feel-good reminder that actions often speak louder—and clearer—than words. Over bouncy vocal harmonies, the Wise Guys parade us through three comic scenarios: a hot date where sweet‐talk risks ruining the mood, a rowdy pub filled with Schalke football fans who might not appreciate a Dortmund confession, and a concert stage-dive gone hilariously wrong. In every scene, the safest or most powerful response isn’t a clever sentence but a wink, a punch, a side-step, or even a flying cream pie.

Behind the laughs, the song spotlights the universal language of gestures, glances, and physical cues. Whether expressing love, mockery, or outright hostility, non-verbal communication can charm, unite, or embarrass in an instant—no dictionary required.
