Die Perfektion (English) Lyrics
Where are you from?
I don't think I've ever seen you before
Wonderful, with splendor
You cannot be resisted
Not too good, not too bad
Not too wrong and not too right
You're perfect, flawless
You're better than good
You're perfect, just great
I really like you*
You're perfection
Perfection
You're perfection
Perfection
Complete, scar-free
Bright, polished, and rich
What you need, I'll buy
I look good, please buy me too!
Not too good, not too bad
Not so wrong and not so right
You're perfect, flawless
You're better than good
You're perfect, just great
I really like you
You're perfection
Perfection
You're perfection
Perfection
Not too old, not too young
Not too smart, not too stupid
Quite whatever, quite neutral
Quite banal, quite whatever
You're perfect, flawless
You're better than good
You're perfect, just great
I really like you
You're perfection
Perfection
You're perfection
Perfection
You're perfection
Perfection
You're perfection
Perfection
* - with my German knowledge I can't fully translate the word "waera". The best I could do is say "I really like you/I would really like you".
I don't think I've ever seen you before
Wonderful, with splendor
You cannot be resisted
Not too wrong and not too right
You're better than good
You're perfect, just great
I really like you*
Perfection
You're perfection
Perfection
Bright, polished, and rich
What you need, I'll buy
I look good, please buy me too!
Not so wrong and not so right
You're better than good
You're perfect, just great
I really like you
Perfection
You're perfection
Perfection
Not too smart, not too stupid
Quite whatever, quite neutral
Quite banal, quite whatever
You're better than good
You're perfect, just great
I really like you
Perfection
You're perfection
Perfection
You're perfection
Perfection
You're perfection
Perfection

Hi - Great job on the translation, FFStudios! I have a couple of subtle differences in my translation below.
On the surface, this song is an tribute to one of the "beautiful people" (no indication of gender). The song goes on and on about how perfect this person is. However, the last two lines of the third verse turns the whole song into an insult. The word "egal" literally translates as "all the same", or "just the same". In this context it seems to mean "just like everyone else", especially when followed by the adjectives "neutral" (or middle-of-the-road, mediocre) and "banal". The point seems to be that in striving to be "perfect" this person has become perfectly boring and unoriginal. Having no thoughts or personality of his/her own, he/she is unremarkable and undeserving of this kind of admiration. For this reason i have translated the word "egal" as "normal" the first time and "unoriginal" the second.
