Paroles et traduction Gimma - Weni gross bin

Weni gross bin

Denkemer mol chli an früener, erinnere mi as bitz zrugg...

I bin ufgwachse im Dreck, mit nüt im Gepäck.
Mini Muatter verschuldet, mina Vatter aweg.
Scheidigskind, einsam, Schlüssel um de Hals,
Allei ufem Spielplatz, sitza uf dr Bank.
Erträum mer e Realität, imaginäri Kollege,
Rede mit mier selber zum Erinnerige hebe.
Spöter kriegi es Tonband, losa stundelang,
Wie gfanga, wasi uf das Band gredet han.

Min schwirige Lehrer, so schwirigi Schüeler,
Min schwirigi Weg, so schwirig und nüachtern.
Kenn kai Emotion, gseh nur ds'Mami am hüla,
Wegem Geld, wegen üs, wege allem und nüt.
Spöter werdi verstoh, jetzt bini no z'jung,
Stohn stumm in dr Kuchi und streichla dr Hund.
Nüt in miar drinn und e Leeri im Gsicht,
In miar drin isch en Staudamm vo Träne, wo bricht.

Weni gross bin kauf mer e Wald und es Auto,
Es Schiff, e Computer, e Traumschloss,
En Fuessballplatz willi au no.
Wenn anderi s'schön hend, denn willis au so.

Weni gross bin kauf mer e Wald und es Auto,
Es Schiff, e Computer, e Traumschloss,
En Fuessballplatz willi au no.
Wenn anderi s'schön hend, denn willis au so.

Dussa regnets, i kleb' mit dr Nase am Fenschter,
Im Fernseh lauft DJ Cat, i bin verkältet.
S'Wetter gfallt mer, i bin allei dehei und lese
Und irgendwo liggend es paar Videokassette.
Alien und Rambo, die erschta Film, woni gsehn,
Bin no nit amol zehni, aber erwachsa ir Seel.
Kan hii, woni will, weni will, aber will nit.
Still, wine Windspil, spil nit mit de Kind.

Blib für mi, beschäftig' mi selber,
Muess nit lerna, kann scho lang schriiba und lesa.
Schriba uf ds Papier mini Gschichta zum riifa.
Zehn Johr spöter wird d'Psycholog's nit begriffe.
Kann füf Sproche flüssend, aber reda nit gern.
Dr Witz an dr Sach isch, i hans gar nia glernt.
Mini Muatter verzwiiflet, hebt d'Händ an mis Gsicht.
In miar drin isch an Staudamm vo Träne wo bricht.

Weni gross bin kauf mer e Wald und es Auto,
Es Schiff, e Computer, e Traumschloss,
En Fuessballplatz willi au no.
Wenn anderi s'schön hend, denn willis au so.

Weni gross bin kauf mer e Wald und es Auto,
Es Schiff, e Computer, e Traumschloss,
En Fuessballplatz willi au no.
Wenn anderi s'schön hend, denn willis au so.

When I Grow Up

I think a little about earlier, remember a bit back...

I grew up in the dirt, with nothing in my luggage.
My mother in debt, my father gone.
Divorce child, lonely, key around my neck,
Alone on the playground, sitting on the bench.
Dream up a reality, imaginary friends,
Talking to myself to keep the memories up.
Later I get a tape recorder, listen for hours,
Like a prisoner, what I have spoken on this tape.

My difficult teachers, such difficult students,
My difficult path, so difficult and sober.
Don't know any emotions, only see my mommy cry,
Because of the money, because of us, because of everything and nothing.
Later I will understand, now I am still too young,
Stand mute in the kitchen and pet the dog.
Nothing in me and a blank face,
In me is a dam of tears that breaks.

When I grow up I'll buy a forest and a car,
A ship, a computer, a dream castle,
I want a football field too.
When others have it beautiful, I want it that way too.

When I grow up I'll buy a forest and a car,
A ship, a computer, a dream castle,
I want a football field too.
When others have it beautiful, I want it that way too.

Outside it's raining, I'm glued to the window with my nose,
DJ Cat is on TV, I have a cold.
I like the weather, I'm home alone reading
And somewhere lie a few video cassettes.
Alien and Rambo, the first movies I saw,
I'm not even ten yet, but mature in soul.
Can go where I want, when I want, but don't want to.
Quiet, like a wind chime, don't play with the children.

Stay for me, keep myself busy,
Don't have to learn, can already write and read for a long time.
Write down my stories on paper to mature.
Ten years later, the psychologist won't understand.
Can speak five languages fluently, but don't like to talk.
The joke is, I never learned it.
My mother despairs, raises her hands to my face.
In me is a dam of tears that breaks.

When I grow up I'll buy a forest and a car,
A ship, a computer, a dream castle,
I want a football field too.
When others have it beautiful, I want it that way too.

When I grow up I'll buy a forest and a car,
A ship, a computer, a dream castle,
I want a football field too.
When others have it beautiful, I want it that way too.
