Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Everybody wake up
Forget your strife
Embrace life, check this
Yo, die Nacht ist vorbei
Die bösen Geister sind weg
Ich kipp' dich aus'm Bett
Sind schön angezeckt
Löschen unsern Brand mit Sekt
Wir fahren an Strand, das Leben fiebert
Wir haben uns angesteckt
Gestern war's so kalt
Heute ist es heiß
Sonne macht geil und weil das so ist
Scheint sie heute zum Beweis
Das Radio klingt feist
Gestern war in den Top 10 Scheiß
Heute ist die Liste heiß
Und du tanzt
Dass ich Gott für deine Kiste preis'
Baby, wach auf, ich zähl' bis zehn
Das Leben will einen ausgeben
Und das will ich sehen
Lass uns endlich rausgehen
Das Radio aufdrehen
Das wird unser Tag, Baby
Wenn wir aufstehen
Steh auf, jetzt oder nie, Girl, zu viel geschlafen
Und das Leben ist halb vorbei
Ich steh drauf wie du tanzt zu dem Lied
Wir holen uns zurück was irgendwann auf der Strecke blieb
I want to see your funny side again
(Make me laugh and)
Take me to your heart where it all began
(Make a new start)
I promise I'll do all I can, for this is the very last chance
To let our love light shine again
Komm, wach auf, ich zähl' bis zehn
Das Leben will einen ausgeben
Und das will ich sehen
Lass uns endlich rausgehen
Das Radio aufdrehen
Das wird unser Tag, Baby
Wenn wir aufstehen
Wake up, woman
There's something that I want you to see
A brand new you and me
Here just waiting to be
Here's my hand
So meet me half of the way
Sweetheart, we're sharing this day
And I don't wish to stay
The way that I am
I see the circumstances are strange
How I want you to change
But still stay the same
The less that we talk
The more time to try
And while you were sleeping
Time passed by
Oh, Baby, lass uns gehen
Das Leben will einen ausgeben
Und das will ich sehen
Lass uns endlich aufstehen
Das Radio aufdrehen
Dazu werden wir tanzen
Und das wird gut aussehen
Komm, wach auf, ich zähl' bis zehn
Das Leben will einen ausgeben
Und das will ich sehen
Lass uns endlich rausgehen
Das Radio aufdrehen
Das wird unser Tag
Wenn wir endlich aufstehen
The song "Aufstehn" by German band Seeed encourages listeners to wake up, forget their daily struggles and embrace life. The opening verse, "The night is over, the evil spirits are gone, I'll toss you out of bed and make coffee that wakes the dead aunties" creates a sense of urgency to get moving, with the lyrics also referencing the good life that awaits. The chorus urges listeners to "wake up" and seize the day, with the repetition of the call to action reinforcing its significance.
The second verse acknowledges that life can be short and that it's important to make the most of it. The reference to "taking back what was left on the sidelines" encourages listeners to pursue their dreams and not waste time. Meanwhile, the third verse shifts the focus from the individual to a relationship, with the lyrics urging a significant other to wake up and join in on the good times. The final verse provides a sense of optimism, acknowledging that while circumstances may be difficult, there is always room for positive change.

A German guy stayed on my couch in Australia, this time last year, and introdroduced me to Seeed. Most people leave rubbish and annoyed memories of overstaying their welcome when I let them crash on my couch. This guy? This guy left me some of the sickest music I've ever heard.
