Powerfrau [English translation]

I wake her up with my happiest laugh,

"Get up, hun, Gotta get to work!"

Her freshly ironed pants lay in the closet,

Tomatoes, Mozzarella and Basil are in the Tupperware,

She says: The sun is shining, I'll take the Lamborghini. I'll be late, we'll be drinking Martinis at Salvatores.

Please don't wait for me, but now I gotta go, and don't forget the flowers!

Beaming at her I say "Don't you worry, the flowers and windows will be finished this morning. Look after yourself, when are you coming home then?"

But she's long gone through the door, cuz she's

A Power woman, who knows all the tricks,

In the Communication-Front-consulting-Multi-Management she works as the Main-Assistant-Chief-Controlling-Analyst.

I've never understood until today, what exactly that is

But she knows, that she can leave me whenever

Behind every strong woman stands a hard-working man.

The flowers have been trimmed, all the windows are cleaned,

The Livingroom carpet was dirty for the longest time.

With my new Water-heater-steamer-cleaning-device, help came for the dirt too little too late.

I went shopping and made the bed fresh and crisp,

and out of boredom bent all of the crummy forks,

But now I'm waiting on her and miss her so much,

Yet I know that I shouldn't call her at the office.

She is a power woman...

Sometimes I feel tired and empty

My therapist says daily: "Don't take it so hard. Having an own hobby would be neat and smart"

But I'm simply not skilled enough to do Pottery.

I hate her young private secretary!

She laughs and says, that there's absolutely nothing going on, but the guy's got muscles, so I don't question

And I don't trust her. She is also just a man.

She is a power woman, and that is her art

The payback for 5,000 years of Patriarchs

But I'm all too-well versed in Divorce Law,

If it ever comes to this, then I'll get the house!
