Schüsse in die Luft (English Translation)
[Verse 1]
My mother says: "Boy, go to sleep, go on holiday"
But I'm supposed to be on the street says Farin Urlaub
Yes, okay, now I'm standing here, but I'm alone in front of a wall
There's just me and nothing else, just this stone in my hand
It's a lonely war against the dirt that surrounds me
The fucking dirt that no one seems to see but me
But how can they if no one looks out?
I'd rather be on the couch with Frauentausch or Bauer sucht Frau

[Pre-Chorus]
And yes, of course only ironic and just in passing
But compared to the victims, one's own life is already cool
A dog doesn't bite when it barks and all is well
As long as those on RTL are a bit dumber than you are

[Refrain]
And I shoot in thе air [Bang, Bang, Bang]
I'm going to war, but no one's going with me
Three shots in the air (Bang, Bang, Bang)
Thе only one out here is me again
And I shoot in the air (Bang, Bang, Bang)
But no reaction, only complaints about noise
Three shots in the air (Bang, Bang, Bang)
The Revolution or Berlin Day & Night
[Verse 2]
You won't be disappointed if you never expect anything
And before you do something wrong, you'd better do nothing at all
Someone will say something sometime
Otherwise you just have to be happy with what you've got
And even if everything sucks, you're broke and can't do anything else
Then just be proud of your country
Or blame it on some other poor bastards
Hey, how about those people in the asylum centre?

[Pre-Chorus]
And no, I've never been anti-everything, I've always been anti-you
But I've long since started to come to terms with things
And that's exactly what I never wanted, I've been here far too long
I've got to get out of here, otherwise I'll end up just like you

[Refrain]
I'm shooting in the air [Bang, Bang, Bang]
I'm going to war, but no one's going with me
Three shots in the air (Bang, Bang, Bang)
The only one out here is me again
And I shoot in the air (Bang, Bang, Bang)
But no reaction, only complaints about noise
Three shots in the air (Bang, Bang, Bang)
The Revolution or Berlin Day & Night
[Bridge]
Nobody cares about anything except the mobile phone contract (And I paint everything black)
With three hundred and ninety euros Hartz you don't get far in the organic market (And I paint everything black)
Your fucking comment was just a joke, of course, all right (And I paint everything black)
Serving drunken idiots at the bar all night long
For seven euros an hour, but illegal

[Refrain]
I shoot in the air [Bang, Bang, Bang]
I go to war, but no one goes with me
Three shots in the air [Bang, Bang, Bang]
The only one out here is me again
And I shoot in the air (Bang, Bang, Bang)
But no reaction, only complaints about noise
Three shots in the air (Bang, Bang, Bang)
The Revolution or Berlin Day & Night

[Post Chorus]
I shoot in the air (Bang, Bang, Bang)
Three shots in the air (Bang, Bang, Bang)
And I Shoot in the Air (Bang, Bang, Bang)
Three shots in the air (Bang, Bang, Bang)
