Mehr als sie erlaubt [English translation]

Her heart is as cold as a frozen chicken

Her beauty is sugar-coated with violence

More than ten rabbits died for her jacket

And what’s more she acts as if it was mink

Being a girl alone is not a virtue

Even if it seems like that's what she believes

I would be fat if I got a piece of cake

for every illusion she stole from me

Maybe she won't see me again once I'm gone

It’s not easy but I love her more than she allows

What do you think about telling her she’s cute?

She has the cuteness of a young wolf

Her soul is far from peaceful

She needs a gun license for her tongue

Wherever she strikes, afterwards the grass no longer grows

No roses either, as time and again she believes

I would be healthy if I got an apple

for every time that she hit me

Maybe she won't see me again once I'm gone

It’s not easy but I love her more than she allows

If I weren't such a huge pig myself

Then it would never have worked out so well for the two of us

At the end of the day, I'm pretty nasty too

At the end of the day, there’s a match for everyone 1

She loves me for my shabby character

And I am so familiar with her cruelty

I would be black and blue if I got one down

For every good friend who didn't believe me

You may never see me again once she's gone

It's not easy, but I'm too fucked up for anything better

1. This is difficult to translate - see the comments below. Literally it means 'there's a face for every bucket' but it seems like a play on words based on two German expressions.

The first is "Auf jeden Topf passt ein Deckel", literally there's a top for every pot, but meaning there's a 'matching partner' for everyone.

The second is similar but rather less romantic: "passt wie Arsch auf Eimer", literally it fits like a bum on a bucket i.e. an exact fit (the kind of thing a builder would say at work).
