The Tradition [German translation]

[Verse 1]

Oh the loneliest girl in town

Is bought for pennies of prize

We dress her up in lovely gowns

She’s easy on the eyes

Her soul is black and it’s a fact

That a snear will eat you alive

The buyer always brings her back

Because all she does is cry

[Chorus]

So take what you want

Take what you can

Take what you please

Don’t give a damn

Ask for forgiveness, never permission

Take what you want

Take what you can

Take what you please

Don’t givе a damn

It’s in the blood and this is tradition

Mhm-hm

[Verse 2]

Oh the loneliеst girl in town

Was bought for plenty of prize

They dress her up in golden crowns

Her smile hides a lie

She smiles back but it’s a fact

That a fear will eat her alive

She got the life that she wanted

But now all she does is cry

[Chorus]

Take what you want

Take what you can

Take what you please

Don’t give a damn

Ask for forgiveness, never permission

Take what you want

Take what you can

Take what you please

Don’t give a damn

It’s in the blood and this is tradition

[Bridge]

You can take it back

It’s good as gone

Flesh amnesiac

This is your song

I hope what’s left will last all summer long

And they said that boys were boys but they were wrong

[Chorus]

Take what you want

Take what you can

Take what you please

Don’t give a damn

Ask for forgiveness, never permission

Take what you want

Take what you can

Take what you please

Don’t give a damn

It’s in the blood and this is tradition

Take what you want

Take what you can

Take what you please

Don’t give a damn

Ask for forgiveness, never permission

Take what you want

Take what you can

Take what you please

Don’t give a damn

It’s in the blood and this is tradition
