Sonne (English)

Rammstein

ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE
SIX, SEVEN, EIGHT, NINE, OUT!

Everybody waits for the light
Scared? - don't be scared!
The sun shines on my eyes
And the sun will keep on shining tonight
As the world counts to ten

[ONE]
Here comes the Sun
[TWO]
Here comes the sun
[THREE]
It is the brightest star of all
[FOUR]
Here comes the sun

The sun shines from my hands
It burns and perplexes you
So if it starts breaking fists
The sun's face will become heated

The sun will keep on shining tonight
As the world counts to ten

Refrain:

[ONE]
Here comes the Sun
[TWO]
Here comes the sun
[THREE]
It is the brightest star of all
[FOUR]
Here comes the sun

[FIVE]
Here comes the Sun
[SIX]
Here comes the sun
[SEVEN]
It is the brightest star of all
[EIGHT]
Here comes the sun

The sun shines from my hands
It burns and perplexes you
So if it starts breaking fists
Heat will be put on your face
It will hurt you on the chest
As the equality is lost
It lets you go down hard when
The world counts to ten

[ONE]
Here comes the Sun
[TWO]
Here comes the sun
[THREE]
It is the brightest star of all
[FOUR]
From heaven, it shall never fall

[FIVE]
Here comes the Sun
[SIX]
Here comes the sun
[SEVEN]
It is the brightest star of all
[EIGHT]
Here comes the sun

    General CommentThis song was origanally written for a boxer ((one of the Kitschko-brothers)) but when it was finished he refused to use it, so they put it on Mutter, the boxing element is SO clear in the song, the 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,AUS((KO)) the whole world watches him, and he will never fall from the sky ((he is the best))...

    Another interpretation of this song goes together with the videoclip((yes Sonne was released in Germany and Holland first not Links like in the US)) if you watch the video clip you think it's about drugs, getting in to a trance, ((here comes the sun)).

    One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, out

    Everyone is waiting for the light
    be afraid, don't be afraid
    the sun is shining out of my eyes
    it will not set tonight
    and the world counts loudly to ten

    One
    Here comes the sun
    Two
    Here comes the sun
    Three
    It is the brightest star of them all
    Four
    Here comes the sun

    The sun is shining out of my hands
    it can burn, it can blind you all
    when it breaks out of the fists
    it lays down hotly on the face
    it will not set tonight
    and the world counts loudly to ten

    One
    Here comes the sun
    Two
    Here comes the sun
    Three
    It is the brightest star of them all
    Four
    Here comes the sun
    Five
    Here comes the sun
    Six
    Here comes the sun
    Seven
    It is the brightest star of them all
    Eight, nine
    Here comes the sun

    The sun is shining out of my hands
    it can burn, it can blind you
    when it breaks out of the fists
    it lays down hotly on your face
    it lays down painfully on your chest
    balance is lost
    it lets you go hard to the floor
    and the world counts loudly to ten

    One
    Here comes the sun
    Two
    Here comes the sun
    Three
    It is the brightest star of them all
    Four
    And it will never fall from the sky
    Five
    Here comes the sun
    Six
    Here comes the sun
    Seven
    It is the brightest star of them all
    Eight, nine
    Here comes the sun

    General CommentHeh... am I the only one who gets turned on by this video? Come on vintage snow white turning out to be a harsh dominatrix, the way she glares at them, and lets not forget the spankings lol.

    SO nevertheless I tried to link the lyrics with the video and naturally snow white is the sun, and they all want to take her down (but she'll not fall today), until the last line where they do take her out. Cause she's abusing them to get drugs. But yes I know there is a much deeper meaning to it :)

    General CommentI love this song so much!! I love the bit after the counting! Da da da da da da! Even though when I sing the verses, I just make up the words! But it's great for dancing to in your room alone with dramatic hand movements...or is that just me? :confused:

    General CommentI think the beginning, if heard of the radio or TV, mite make people want to turn the TV off as it sounds like a dance songs about to start, but the rest of the song is brilliant, this is the only rammstein song i like, its not that they're bad, i think its excellent that they've broke into the UK!
