Westerland

first post!

its too bad these aren't translated.

lately we've been there the guys from greenpeace were right because the sea stank fairly bad and we got fairly sick

when will this island be dynamited? when will sylt be dumped in the sea?

oh i have such a disire i loose my mind i want to get back to the north sea i want back to get back to westerland

bla bla, i'm lazy i'm lazy bla bla dont want to translate everything

this one love will never end when will we be seeing each other again?

bla bla i'm lazy again bla dont want to translate everything

its kind of expensive but youre among yourselves und i know that every other is here is as stupid as i am

oh i have such a desire bla bla i want back, i want back etc blablabla

The lyrics here are not the original lyrics. Die Ärzte often change their lyrics during concert, and the version we have here is probably from "Das Beste von kurz nach früher bis jetzte". In the classical version, the song starts with "Jeden Tag sitz' ich am Wannsee...".

Now, here's my translation. I'm trying to catch the meaning of the song, rather than to translate it word by word.

We've been there the other day the Greenpeace guys were right 'cause the sea smelled quite bad and we felt pretty sick

When will this island be blasted? When will Sylt* be dumped at sea?

Oh, my desire I am losing my mind I want to get back to the North Sea Back to Westerland**

Every day, I am sitting at the Wannsee*** And listening to the waves And I am lying on my towel And I am not able to to find any peace of mind

This One True Love Will never find an end When will we meet again?

Sometimes, I close my eyes I imagine myself sitting by the sea Then I think of that island And my heart gets so heavy

This One True Love Will never find an end When will we meet again?

Oh, my desire I am losing my mind I want to get back to the North Sea Back to Westerland

How many times did I stand on the waterfront? How many times did I jump into the Spree****? How many times did they have to save me from drowning?

This One True Love Will never find an end When will we meet again?

Oh, my desire I am losing my mind I want to get back to the North Sea Back to Westerland

It may be a bit expensive But you are among yourselves And I know every other guy here Is as stupid as I am

Oh, my desire I am losing my mind I want to get back to the North Sea Back to Westerland

• An island in the North Sea, known for expensive health resorts and long beaches. Westerland is a part of Sylt. ** As mentioned above, a part of Sylt. * A big lake in Berlin ** A river in Berlin

Hope I did not mess it up that bad ;)
