Träum ja nur [Hippies] [English translation]

I look around me, have to say I can’t shake the feeling

Something is wrong

As if History is

Just repeating itself

Kasper wins elections with

Dull slogans

Live like a king,

Burning up this world

And money reigns over everything

But I see peace signs,

There where people live

Hear “Imagine” from tanks and drones

Women and men equal everywhere

Wealth enough for everyone

All hands in the air for music and freedom

Celebrate the person and the differences

And critics fuss: “what do the hippies want?”

Man, relax, I’m just dreaming

And every day a Friday for Future

Every person flooded with reason and love

And in 2060 my grandson asks me

“Grandpa, tell me, what even is a racist?

And what even is a homophobe?

And what is a climate catastrophe?”

And I’ll say: “Little one I’m glad you don’t know, the past is all shit.”

But I see peace signs,

There where people live

Hear “Imagine” from tanks and drones

Women and men equal everywhere

Wealth enough for everyone

All hands in the air for music and freedom

Celebrate the person and the differences

And critics fuss: “what do the hippies want?”

Man, relax, I’m just dreaming

But I see peace signs,

There where people live

Hear “Imagine” from tanks and drones

Women and men equal everywhere

Wealth enough for everyone

All hands in the air for music and freedom

Celebrate the person and the differences

And critics fuss: “what do the hippies want?”

Man, relax, I’m just dreaming

But I see peace signs,

There where people live

Hear “Imagine” from tanks and drones

Women and men equal everywhere

Wealth enough for everyone

All hands in the air for music and freedom

Celebrate the person and the differences

And critics fuss: “what do the hippies want?”

Man, relax, I’m just dreaming

All hands in the air for music and freedom

Celebrate the person and the differences

And critics fuss: “what do the hippies want?”

Man, relax, I’m just dreaming
