Alles kommt zurück [English translation]

VW bug, aviator sunglasses

Shoulder pads and permanent waves

It’s all somehow familiar to me

Boys who wear mustaches

Sweat jackets and pants with flair ¹

That’s something we’ve already dealt with

Neon colors – I’ve already been there

S.U.V.s - I’ve already been there ²

Skateboarding – I’ve already been there

Wearing hats – I’ve already been there

Disco beat – I’ve already been there

Swing music –I’ve already been there

It always starts back up again and

Comes back year after year like a boomerang

Refrain:

Everything, everything comes back, everything comes again

Ingenious or in bad taste, it really doesn’t matter

Everything comes back, that’s why I don’t understand

That everything comes back; everything, but you

John Travolta and Take That

Poker tables and dance floors,

At the most, were missing for a decade

The Terminator reappeared

The Titanic sank again

Whose absence was temporary too

Economic crisis – it’s come back

Free love – it’s come back

Jesus Christ – he’s come back

Buddhism too – will come back

History in itself – has come back

My poems to you - have come back

The earth just keeps rotating around itself

You don’t turn back the hands of time, whether you like it or not

(Refrain)

Everything, everything comes back, everything comes again

Ingenious or in bad taste, it really doesn’t matter

Everything comes back and then you tell me

That everything comes back; everything, but you

Ooooooo, oooh, oooh, everything comes back

Everything comes back

I see our Polaroids still hanging on the fridge

They’re even back “in” today

So often it rings true, that old becomes new

Something you just want to have back

Is over once and for all

Everything, everything comes back, everything comes again

Ingenious or in bad taste, it really doesn’t matter

Everything comes back and then you tell me

That everything comes back; everything, but you

Ooooooo, ooo, ooo, everything comes back

Everything comes back

Ooooooo, ooo, ooo, everything comes back

That’s why I don’t understand,

That everything comes once again;

Everything, but you
