Kutsu [English translation]

This is my party, this is my party

And I'm afraid that no one will come

That no one will come

I've been away, I've been away

I've always had something else

Maybe I've been forgotten

There's always a reason, for why I don't show up

I have a busy evening or an early morning

I'll try to come but don't dare to promise

Have fun, I'll be there in spirit

There's no time or reason to celebrate

Cold comfort, but at least you got flowers again

Plants tell about a bad conscience

Again one housewarming that wasn't crowded

How did we become so difficult?

Social pressure to perform

It's impossible to make any plans with me

And at parties I'm like E.T. I want back home

This is my party, this is my party

And I'm afraid that no one will come

That no one will come

I've been away, I've been away

I've always had something else

Maybe I've been forgotten

And if I invite you

At least you will come, right?

At least you will come, right?

And if I invite you

At least you will come, right?

At least you will come, right?

Your housewarmings, your masquerades

Season openers, Sunday breakfasts

Away, I've been away so much

And today is my party and no one's on time

I've had to strike away, since we got the iron hot

And if I wasn't at work, I was too drunk

The fruits of my labor don't console much even in my wallet1

When I wait for the doorbell to ring alone at my place

I've neglected those who want to keep me close

When we meet we don't hug but distantly shake hands

I don't even have the nerve to lie that I'm innocent

Here's my public apology

This is my party, this is my party

And I'm afraid that no one will come

That no one will come

I've been away, I've been away

I've always had something else

Maybe I've been forgotten

And if I invite you

At least you will come, right?

At least you will come, right?

And if I invite you

At least you will come, right?

At least you will come, right?
