Vor Gericht [English translation]

[Intro:]

Farewell won't last forever, baby, don't you worry

We'll see each other again, we'll see each other again - in court!

Three, four...

[Part 1:]

Yeah, come here and fight! One-on-one, be a man!

But you'll have to live with my counter: "I'm gonna dob on you!!!"

'31 style!(*1) If I'm having a bad day

Then anyone who gets in my way will have the pants sued off them (*2)

I am a sportsman, but if you best me at handball

Then rest assured that you'll be receiving correspondence from my lawyer

Colder than what you'd find in the weather report

Here I come with the legal process

Hey babe, it's okay that you fucked the newspaper boy

When I go and snitch to the cops it'll be 1-0 (one-nil) for me!

Did I ever actually love you, you ask?

(Ha, well...) Without my lawyer I ain't saying nothing!

[Chorus:]

Farewell won't last forever, baby, don't you worry

We'll see each other again, we'll see each other again - in court!

Destruction doesn't always require violence

We'll see each other again, we'll see each other again

We'll see each other again, we'll see each other again

We'll see each other again, we'll see each other again - in court!

[Verse 2]

Even back in school I was already letting myself get beat up with a smile,

That way I could calmly go to the principal afterwards and tattle

I'd already figured out back then: I can use state resources

To crush my rivals - just like the Indians (*3) (Ooooh...! :D)

My parents used to say I shouldn't be playing with porno mags

I sued them and they lost custody

Whenever there's a disagreement with my superiors at work

A post-it war begins immediately (*4)

I once drank gasoline and then crapped on the street

Today the gas station is paying me for the damages - (what?! :D)

Where are our kids, you ask?

(You already know:) Without my lawyer I ain't saying nothing!

[Chorus]

[Part 3:]

("Achtung, Achtung: Our security forces have lost control!")

I was just gonna go and have the death penalty imposed on some internet pirate

But I couldn't seem to reach any of my high-paid lawyers

The city looks rather strange, I'm reading it here on a flyer:

"The system has collapsed - Only the rule of nature remains!"

(...Crap) The neighbours are all working together now!

Now I'll have to live with people who I can't caution with the rules!

At least I can still survive here in amongst the group

Do I actually have empathy...? Nah, I was vaccinated for that

What? Oh yeah, I was the one who got you all convicted!

Hey, don't look so scary about it, guys - nice throwing darts!

Come on guys, I didn't make the rules

I just interpreted them however it suited me without any of that "neighbourly love" crap

Guys, have pity! (*5)

I can't put up my dukes or whip around a knife

Legal loopholes are the only method of escape I know!

The wetspot building at my crotch clearly shows:

Without my lawyer I ain't nothing!

[Chorus]

[Outro:]

We'll see each other again, we'll see each other again

We'll see each other again, we'll see each other again

We'll see each other again, we'll see each other again - in court!
