Flieg
Silly Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

mach die Fenster auf
zieh alle Stecker raus
streich die Wände bunt
und mal Dir'n feuerroten Mund
schrei Deine Wut hinaus
leck Dir die Wunden aus
zähl Deine Freunde ab
und drück die Schnorrer in den Skat
Ref.:

flieg, flieg, fahr aus der Haut
weit, weit raus ins freie
flieg, flieg, und eh der Morgen graut
wächst Dir 'ne nagelneue
blas die Kerzen aus
wirf die Gespenster raus
kipp den Fusel ins Klo
und Deine Zweifel sowieso
hau die Briefe auf den Müll
leg Deinen Boss auf den Grill
ruf Deinen Lover an




und sag Ihm, daß er Dich mal kann
