It makes a pretty nice ring, even if the meaning is a little different from the German one. I think this song is about a different POV of angels. If you look at different kinds of art, angels aren't always like the ones in storybooks. They can punish, they even carry swords.
To me this song says that I can 'Go live a helluva life, and not worry about going to a heaven or a hell. If you are an angel, who would really know?' Sorry if that offends anyone, that's just the way I see this song.
