Wunderbar [English translation]

When you haven't got any friends any more, because your arse doesn't fit in any trousers

When sit-ups and pushups are no use to you

When scales, chairs and mattresses

Simply burst underneath you

Then don't go mad:

You're not too fat, no, the others are too thin

You're not too fat, but the others are too thin

They've got to go through life as half-dead skeletons

But you're not too fat-

You're beautiful!

When everyone wants to see your ID,

Even for bicycle checks

When you jump from the pavement

And almost drown in a puddle

When even chihuahuas look down on you

As you walk

Then don't let anything bother you*

You're not too short, no, the others are too tall

You're not too short, but the others are too tall

They are lost giants, as lonely as they are bizarre

But you're not too short-

You're wonderful!

When every slug frightens you

Because they move so terribly quickly

When you can't pluck flowers anymore

Because they die** while you bend down

Are you always in a frenzy

Because the seasons are racing by

They'll never understand:

You're not too slow, no, the others are too fast

You're not too slow, but the others are too fast

They rush aimlessly around like human atoms

But you're not too slow...
