Elvis Costello & The Imposters - Everyone's Playing House - translation of the lyrics into German

Everyone's Playing House - Elvis Costellotranslation in German




Everyone's Playing House
Alle spielen Häuschen
Well, well, isn't this sweet?
Na, na, ist das nicht süß?
Everyone's playing house
Alle spielen Häuschen
I'm not meaning to mock
Ich will mich nicht lustig machen
Or trespass
Oder stören
On this pretty plain picture-perfect scene
In dieser hübschen, makellosen, bildschönen Szene
This is delicious
Das ist köstlich
How could I be so rude? (Rude)
Wie könnte ich so unhöflich sein? (Unhöflich)
I'd never be malicious
Ich wäre niemals boshaft
Or dare even to intrude
Oder würde es wagen, mich einzumischen
It's coming to pass
Es kommt so weit
Can you believe your eyes?
Kannst du deinen Augen trauen?
Are you living with love?
Lebst du mit Liebe?
Or are you living with a lie? (Lie, lie, lie, lie)
Oder lebst du mit einer Lüge? (Lüge, Lüge, Lüge, Lüge)
I know that you want me
Ich weiß, dass du mich willst
Scatter those dishes
Wirf das Geschirr weg
Give into your wishes
Gib deinen Wünschen nach
You've seen it all (seen it all)
Du hast alles gesehen (alles gesehen)
I know that you do
Ich weiß, dass du es tust
You've pictured this
Du hast dir das vorgestellt
With the light pouring in
Mit dem Licht, das hereinflutet
Glistening
Glitzernd
With the covers pulled back
Mit der zurückgezogenen Decke
And my clothes torn away from my skin
Und meine Kleider von meiner Haut gerissen
Well, well, isn't this tart
Na, na, ist das nicht herb
Just like my bitter heart
Genau wie mein bitteres Herz
So, let's end if you don't
Also, lass es uns beenden, wenn du nicht
Have the courage to begin with
Den Mut hast, anzufangen
Do you want to slap me?
Willst du mich schlagen?
Until I can say what for
Bis ich sagen kann, wofür
Do you want to kiss me?
Willst du mich küssen?
Just once and no more
Nur einmal und nicht mehr
You play the family man
Du spielst den Familienvater
In the sad aftermath
Im traurigen Nachspiel
Fingers for peeking right through
Finger zum Durchgucken
Just like Daddies do
Genau wie Väter es tun
Now my scent is on your breath
Jetzt ist mein Duft auf deinem Atem
I'm going to make you a mess
Ich werde dich ruinieren
He pressed the glass to my lips
Er drückte das Glas an meine Lippen
"I'm going to make you"
"Ich werde dich..."
I'm going to make you
Ich werde dich ruinieren
I'm going to make you a mess
Ich werde dich ruinieren
