I did NOT have the opportunity to listen to the song, but there are little language mistakes, which i will correct. I hope that Till did not do those mistakes on purpose (i'm german): Das tote Meer in meinem Fleisch hat geboren einen Hafen jeden Tag zur gleichen Zeit legt sie an um mich zu strafen mit einer sterbenden Galeere die Lerche mit der weissen Haube ich würde töten, dass sie bei mir wäre doch hat sie Schnabel gleich dem Grief (??? Don't think that this is a german word, didn't find it in a single dictionary) und Fänge scharf wie eine Schere. Sie wirft Anker und wird singen entzwei mein Schiffchen aus Papier schneidet es mit edlen Klingen schreit sich zu kälteren Gewässern es sinkt und niemand singt mit mir und darum hab ich Angst vor Messern. Das Schiffchen blutet aus dem Mast in die Brust die Grossmama und wenn ihr nachts die Sonne scheint ist jemand da der mit ihr weint wir treiben kalt auf Augenschauern hungerfroh in schweren Fässern sie schneidet tief um mich zu essen und darum hab ich Angst vor Messern. Und wenn ihr nachts die Sonne scheint ist niemand da der mit mir weint |

| Rammstein – Spieluhr Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| @therealamon: everyone can interpret the song as he likes to, i just told you my version. Since i don't know any tale from my fatherland, which deals with the mentioned aspects, i couldn't think about a meaning like that. Please tell me the name of the tale, if there is a tale like that. Further i don't think that this is a tale, since the lyrics itself, have little meaning in case of treating it as a tale. | |

here one quick translation i did wihtin few minutes (feel free to improve or post as english version): Who does fine while being alive will be one angel after death looking at the sky you'll ask yourself why you cant see those Not until the clouds fall asleep you can see us in the sky we are afraid and feel alone God knows, that i don't want to be an angel They lived behind the sunshine detached and infinite far away from us they have to cling to the stars (very tight) in order to not fall down Not until the clouds fall asleep you can see us in the sky we are afraid and live alone God knows, that i don't want to be an angel Not until the clouds fall asleep you can see us in the sky we are afraid and live alone God knows, that i don't want to be an angel |

You're right with your suggestions, guys. However, since I'm German I tried to analyze the song for a few times. I think its about the national-socialism in german, which was said to be dead after the loss of ww2. But now, that "haben sie es ausgebettet" (they opened the grave) nationalsocialism and racism is a burning issue in germany and again. The "spieluhr" (=timer in this case) underlines the caracter of a ticking bomb, according to the things mentioned before. sry for my bad english, i hope you understood, what i wanted to tell you. |
