Klatsche [English translation]

[Intro]

Ah ah

We are the ticks

The blue ones1can lick us

Ah Ah Ah

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

[Part 1]

I was born during the days of chaos

I learned early on that you can't say stuff like yes and amen

To nothing! I've experienced riot and panic a thousand times

I look a bit weird

And I don't need to go the way that everyone else is taking

You get a fat ass from sitting, I have other problems

The last, psychiatric drugs taking, living punk

Batman wants my bounty, the Joker is my soul mate

Raid the pharmacist, shout: "Pills or money!"

Explain the world in a relaxed way to my psycho-doc with a few mushrooms

Look, we're anti-social ticks on pills, not just part-time rocker

We're screaming with pride, we have a screw loose

[Refrain]

I'm nuts, oh oh oh

And the synapses are going crazy, I failed in life, yes I know

I'm not properly wired together, oh oh oh

And maybe I'll never be normal, but what about it?

I feel so free

[Bridge]

Hey, the hands go up, middle finger in the air for the résumé, oh

Super wicked, dude turn it up, if it's too loud, then you can go outside, yeah

I arrive with the others, we're still the tick gang, yeah

Shattered like Rantanplan2, pille palle plem plem

[Part 2]

I am threatened and need an escort from the lobby

My ex is now going into series production because murder is her hobby

She has a pump gun in the closet and golden teeth

The reaction to my texts is: "You should be ashamed!"

I was a problematic child, I always got screwed over by everyone

I'm not schizophrenic, the voices would have told me that!

The Altonaken Schanzianer, I really come from there

Don't get off-topic by talking about the yuppies or the church3

And we can't die just yet, I want me to experience something

My music is like a lot of colorful plasters for the soul

We are radical anti-social ticks, not just part-time rocker

We shriek proudly, we have a loosened screw

[Refrain]

[Bridge]
