[Verse 1]
Yesterday I took the train to Favoriten
It's raining outside, and it stinks inside, and I'm standing in the middle
The people, whether they're sitting or standing, all have a dull eye
And certainly not just on the train
I think they have that all day long, yes
[Verse 2]
I always meet a man at the restaurant who talks about God knows what
He's so rich, he's so good, he knows the whole world
In reality, he's homeless, unemployed and always drunk
The last pain in my eyes, no, I can't stand him
[Chorus]
Pinch me, I think I'm dreaming
That can't be true, where are we?
Pinch me, no matter where
I can't believe it, am I drunk?
But I don't think pinching will help
Couldn't someone maybe smack me in the face?
Thank you, now it's clear to me, it's true, it's true
[Verse 3]
Young people have no ideal, no sense of true values
The young leaders are doing too well, they know no hardness
That's how those who only crawl into surgery talk
Take bribes, do packaging
One more scandal, then retire
In short, be a real role model
[Chorus]
Pinch me, I think I'm dreaming
That can't be true, where are we?
Pinch me, no matter where
I can't believe it, am I drunk?
But I don't think pinching will help
Couldn't someone maybe smack me in the face?
Thank you, now it's clear to me, it's true, it's true
Pinch me, I think I'm dreaming
That can't be true, where are we?
Pinch me, no matter where
I can't believe it, am I drunk?
But I don't think pinching will help
Couldn't someone maybe smack me in the face?
Thank you, now it's clear to me, it's true, it's true, yes
