Ehrlich das wird mir jetzt zu heiß hier
und außerdem gefährlich
Komm' mach doch jetzt kein' Scheiß hier
Ich bin zwar recht begehrlich
das steht wohl außer Frage
das liegt an meinen Haaren
wenn ich sie offen trage
Das magst du doch so

Lass' uns nicht lange reden
Vielleicht probieren wir's im nächsten Leben

Anna du bist nicht so geil wie Eva
die ist ohne Worte
Anna lass uns Freunde bleiben
und uns nur die Zeit vertreiben

Einfach was ist denn heute stressfrei
das passt mir nicht in mein Fach
Ich mag zwar deinen Dress - Geil!!
Du bist zwar recht begehrlich
das steht wohl außer Frage
das liegt an deinen Beinen
wenn ich sie offen trage
Das magst doch so

Lass' uns nicht lange reden
Vielleicht probieren wir's im nächsten Leben

Overall Meaning

The Die Schröders song Anna appears to be about a potentially dangerous and heated physical attraction between two individuals. The singer expresses that it is getting too hot and dangerous in their current situation, and urges the other person not to play games. They admit that they are desirable, something that may be attributed to the way they wear their hair, and suggest that they should not waste any more time talking but possibly try again in the next life.

The singer then contrasts Anna's attractiveness to that of Eva, who is so beautiful that words aren't necessary. They suggest that Anna may not compare in terms of physical allure and suggests that they should just remain friends and while away their time. The lyrics further suggest that the singer finds little in the world that is stress-free, but admits to finding Anna's clothing choice to be attractive. They once again attribute Anna's desirability to her legs and express a desire to try again in another life without any hesitation.

Overall, the song seems to be about a somewhat one-sided physical attraction that may be too risky to pursue in the present. The singer expresses that they find their counterpart desirable but suggests that it may not be enough for a lasting relationship.
