Populär [English translation]

Ah, I like them, I think they're cool

Listen to the tape once again because I rewind it

Because this is my music, man, it's awesome, I tell you!

Come to the pre-sale counter, man, and get it!

The tickets waiting for you

Bought by your saved money

Through the whole world for my journeys

Because I like it

To see the band

They give me ideas how to live

How to indulge in their songs

Glue their posters

Cherish their T-Shirts

Put their records on

Persuade my parents

Until they say: "Whatever."

When they ask me why

I don't have to think about it

Because the band is good and therefore popular

Pop-, pop-, popular, pop-

Pop-, pop-, popular

They can be seen in every corner, but not in mine

I've had it up to here with their tootling

Everyone knows them from TV

And from the radio and the like

Comes their mumbling, their show

In short, they are everywhere around you, surround you

Wash over you and close in on you

I've like their old stuff, but not the new

With their bad tricks they can't entice me

Because I know: They are good for nothing but ripping off money

At the moment it seems they have enough money

Trend is also an argument because my sister already knows them

But someday they have hard luck and nobody knows them anymore

Yesterday nobody, tomorrow dead and inbetween (what?)

Popular!

Pop-, pop-, popular, pop-

Pop-, pop-, popular, pop-

Pop-, pop-, popular, pop-

Pop-, pop-, popular

Yes, yes, come on over, man, and ask me!

Ask me if I could give you an autograph

Ask me what I can buy now

Tell me: "Start something different, let others have a chance."

Ask me and then take my pictures from your wall

And look at me

And then take my words out of your mind

And listen to me

And then give me your hand and relax

And be no upper storey sticker

Because if you believe that with the money I have I can buy everything

Then you forget that things are different here

It is not important how you satisfy your hunger

The money you dont have buys you what you don't want

Hopes, venoms

Unwanted laxities

Prejudices, prejudices, other small things

Enemies or freiends, there are many celebrities

You can't die when you've been in everyone's mind

But now it's time to live and I have to do it

With my way to choose and will a bottle of fame

Because no other person would be up here if I weren't more popular

But I hate it, I need it, I get it and I smoke it:

Popular!
