Revolution 7 of 4
English translation by Indira, AI assistant. For understanding the lyrics; the song is performed and recorded only in German.
Revolutions that are none, yet understand each other,
evade the headwind when they arise there.
See how the weather bends after the report.
How the wall breeds walls carries no weight.
Throw yourself into pistol volleys; give them my fond regards.
Questions remain unrecognised; that is kind of you.
Everyone dies alone, for the great thing.
Wanting things different need not be. Come on, baby, sing.
The sun chirps and a bird shines, united in loneliness again.
But what does wanting things different mean? Different has been here a thousand times.
The sun chirps and a bird shines, never saying what it means.
And the river in pleasure is compulsion. Nothing becomes clear here anymore.
Clear-plastic-film potato salad. A word makes a state. And means:
the sun chirps and a bird shines.
Revolution as a shell game: where is the one hidden
that makes things better and explains everything, one last jackpot?
The eyes stay closed and grey; do not look too closely.
A lullaby sounds no different differently: everyone to the building site!
Whatever may be, a remnant remains that simply does not understand,
that wants what works to be different, and goes and goes and goes.
Do nothing new, but do something.
Laugh and sing and stay awake...
