attemt on a translation of the lyrics

laleh - bigbrother

A desperate attemt, it will take a heros courage, who of us is brave enough to help my bigbrother, bigbrother, my dear bigbrother he has an eye for that (a knack for), his mind searches lucky clovers, staying out all night, with guys that he call his brothers oh dear lord, dear bigbrother

always something going on, i have no idea what its all about, staying out all night, god knows what hes doing maybe something illegal or maybe he is just extremely social?

My brother dreams of the life, they show him on tv, he always wants to be like them i want him as he is, my brother, dear bigbrother, brother, are you going out into the night? come, lets bond in friendship, come, stay here with me, i want to be with you, bigbrother, dear bigbrother

Come, stay at home, here with mother we can talk to eachother, drink tea and have cookies, come lets remenisque, lets remember do you have the same dreams now? about becoming kung-fu master, and president? brother, tell me what has happened my brother, dear bigbrother

always something going on, i have no idea what its all about, staying out all night, god knows what hes doing, maybe something illegal or maybe he is just extremely social?

my brother picked me up this morning in his new, shiny Porsche dear brother wouldn't answer if it was bought with stolen money it could happen but he took me to an office it turnes out that bigbrother has started a little business everything right as rain and the nights he'd stayed away he had been there, working

everything turned out very well, but this was not how it was with brother, dear bigbrother

always something going on, i have no idea what its all about, staying out all night, god knows what hes doing, maybe something illegal or maybe he is just extremely social?

he who lives fancy and well leaves no trace he who lives fancy and well leaves no trace he flies high between all particles and forgets all years he flies high between all particles and forgets all years but he whos left deep traces in the mud every day has hardened his days who has felt every last breath he doesnt live for a future but for today
