Paroles et traduction Wolfgang Ambros - Kaputt und munter

Kaputt und munter

Jetzt sitz I do kaputt und munter
Und tram von ana besser′n Zeit.
I bin allan wia i's jo g′wohnt bin,
Ka Mensch'nseele weit und breit.

Vergangenheit und Zukunft
Hob'n jetzt ka Bedeutung mehr.
I hob scho so, so vü bereut -
I hob des G′fühl es is so weit.

Wirklichkeit und böser Wille
San zumindest artverwandt.
Du host an Zuarn, du schluckst
Die Pille,
Du waßt, du host es in da Hand.
Es g′freit mi ned, es geht nix weida
I hob scho so, so vü bereut -
I bin da große Freudverleider.

Überlange Wartezeit
Is da Tod jeder Idee,
Z'erst merkst nur, dass di nimma g′freit
Und später waß'd dann nimma,
Wia soll des weitergeh′n ...

Wen kümmert's, ob I graue Hoa kriag?
Mein′ best'n Freund, den sicher ned!
Wen kümmert's, ob′s mi fost darwiagt,
Und wia mei Leb′n weitergeht?

Mei ganzes Leb'n is a Strof,
I bin so bled, I bin so blind.
Oba irgendwo, I waß genau,
Hob I a mei Strof vadient!

Broken and Cheerful

Now I sit here broken and cheerful
And dream of a better time.
I am alone as I am used to,
No human soul far and wide.

Past and future
Have no meaning anymore.
I have regretted so, so much -
I have the feeling it is so far.

Reality and evil will
Are at least similar in nature.
You have an anger, you swallow
The pill,
You know, you have it in your hand.
It doesn't please me, nothing goes further
I have regretted so, so much -
I am the great joy-spoiler.

Excessive waiting time
Is the death of any idea,
At first you only notice that you are no longer happy
And later you no longer know,
How it should go on ...

Who cares if I get grey hairs?
My best friend, certainly not!
Who cares if it almost kills me,
And how my life goes on?

My whole life is a punishment,
I am so stupid, I am so blind.
But somewhere, I know exactly,
I have deserved my punishment!
