Australien [English translation]

Next door, they're watching the Super Cup on TV

Sirens – she's closing the blinds

Some Turkish children are playing in the yard

Down there on the garage door: a swastika and "Germany sucks"

And she's too lazy to leave, too gutless to stay

Too gutless to get involved, too lazy to escape

But one day, she will move

To Australia

She's sick and tired of all the concrete walls

The dosh she's saved for the flight is hidden between the shirts in her wardrobe

A child "made in Germany" is out of question

In that country run by bureaucracy – she'd prefer the bush, where the Aborigines live

Too lazy to leave, too gutless to stay

Too gutless to get involved, too lazy to escape

But one day, she will move

To Australia

She paints her frustration in water colours

Every day, she earns a little more

She flees from the grey by writing poems

But her wanderlust keeps coming back like a boomerang

Too lazy to leave, too gutless to stay

Too gutless to get involved, too lazy to escape

But one day, she will move

To Australia

Nothing but the sun on her skin and inside her soul

No doubts, no fears that afflict her

No more duties, no taboos

In kangaroo land

And she's too lazy to leave, too gutless to stay

Too gutless to get involved, too lazy to escape

But one day, she will move

To Australia

And she's too lazy to leave, too gutless to stay

Too gutless to get involved, too lazy to escape

But one day, she will move

To Australia

To Australia

To Australia
