Genius English Translations - Wolfgang Ambros Es Lebe Der Zentralfriedhof English Translation Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Long live the Central Cemetery and all its dead
Entry is prohibited for the living today without exception
Because death is throwing a party all night long
And not a single one of the guests needs a ticket
When night falls over the Simmering, life comes to the dead
And over by the crematorium they fry bone marrow
Back there by the marble tomb, there are two skeletons
They toast with two urns and compete in drinking

[Chorus]
There's an atmosphere at the Central Cemetery
As it has never been before
Because all dead people are celebrating today
Their first hundred years

[Verse 2]
Long live the Central Cemetery and its anniversaries
They have been lying and rotting there for over a hundred years
It's cold outside and warm downstairs, just a little damp sometimes
Even when you lay down like this, you're happy when the grave lantern lights up
Long live the central cemetery, the scene seems macabre
The priests dance with the whores and Jews with Arabs
Today everyone is funny again, today everything is alive
There's a band playing in the mausoleum, they've got an insane hammer on them
[Bridge]
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
Happy birthday

[Chorus]
There's an atmosphere at the Central Cemetery
As it has never been before
Because all dead people are celebrating today
Their first hundred years

[Bridge]
Happy birthday
Happy birthday

[Verse 3]
Long live the central cemetery, all of a sudden there's a noise
The Moser sings the Fiakerlied and the Schrammeln play a waltz
Suddenly the music is silent and everyone's eyes light up
Because over there stands the bone man, waving his sickle

[Chorus]
There's an atmosphere at the Central Cemetery
As it has never been before
Because all dead people are celebrating today
Their first hundred years
[Outro]
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
