Action [English translation]

It's in the middle of the night

but it's not dark

Middle of the night, but I'm not tired

The town is quiet

and the buzz is over

The only thing I can hear is the sound of my steps

It's in the middle of the night

in a town that is closed

It doesn't matter that my pockets are inside-out

Not far away I can hear sirens

I hear sirens but I don't see any action

I don't see any action

I am looking for action, action

I am looking for action

but all I find is broken glass and vomit

action action

I am looking for action

Give me something

before their day dawns

Give me something

before their day dawns

Give me something

before their day dawns

In the thousand homes

the evening's work is done

the wife is awake

and the old man sleeps

she lights up a cigarette and

listens to the rain

listens to the rain

while she waits for some action

Soon the whole town will go to work

The whole town except for me will go to work

I light up a cigarette and

listen to the rain

Listen to the rain

while I wait for some action

I wait for some action

I wait for some action, action

I am looking for action

but all I find is broken glass and vomit

action action

I am looking for action

Give me something

before their day dawns

Give me something

before their day dawns

Give me something

before their day dawns

Here comes the first tram

soon it will be daytime

Soon the shop will open

and then it will be daytime

And the alcoholics of half of the city

Stand there and shiver when they

wait for some action

I sit on a bench and watch the people walk by

They swarm in like ants

with bloodshot eyes

I light up a cigarette and listen to the rain

Listen to the rain

while I wait for some action
