Früher [English translation]

In former times,

In former times everything was better

In former times,

In former times everything was better

In former times...

In former times everything was better.

The poor were richer and the rich a bit poorer.

The pillows were softer and the summers were warmer.

The days were brighter and the nights longer,

The skirts were shorter and the tops were tighter.

There were only three TV programs,

Nevertheless they were as bad as today,

But they were less.

The scoop of ice cream was only thirty Pfennig in the ice cream parlour...

In former times...

In former times...

In former times everything was better.

In former times one could solve problems:

There were the good and the bad.

The bad sat deep in the east,

The good here in the west

On very high costs,

To make it clear to the bad:

"Stop laughing!

We have the bigger missile!"

Well, that cost a lot of dough.

And when the bad were bankrupt,

It became apparent:

They really don't look that wicked. In former times...

In former times...

In former times everything was better.

There were no cell phones, not even telephone cards.

You could wait for hours at the booth!

And when finally it was your turn

and you had no pennies,

The desire to call someone was simply gone.

That was much more inexpensive!

In former times women were more willing -

At least towards me.

I just can't get over it.

In former times everything was better. In former times...

In former times...

In former times everything was better.

In former times it was "think big!"

It makes me sick,

That today everybody nags,

That in former times evrything was better.

To me it's completely clear:

In former times people didn't do that.

They thought:

"Great times, gee!"

They were happy and modest.

Everybody was nice and they all liked each other.

In former times everything was better. In former times...

In former times...
