Lindemann – Steh auf (English Translation) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Today is a beautiful day
In the sky, kites are flying
Boats swimming on the lake
We could do so much
We do not want to miss anything
Do not want to miss anything
But you just stay lying down
In the bed, the wet one

[Refrain]
Stand up!
Stand up again!
Stand up!
Stand up again!

[Strophe 2]
Do not stay lying down, it would be a pity
Circus is in the city today
Please show me all animals
Get me ice and lemonade
We do not want to miss anything
Get up, we have fun
But you just stay lying down
Eyes opened, cheeks pale
[Refrain]
Stand up!
Stand up again!
Stand up!
Stand up again!
Stand up!

[Bridge]
Why do I always have to wait?
Why always crying?
Why all the black holes
In the arms, in the legs?
Mum, stand up, live up again

[Refrain]
Stand up!
Stand up!
Stand up again!
Stand up!
Stand up!
Stand up again!
Stand up!

[Outro]
Stand uuup!
