Marie
Tom Franke Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ich gab dir meine Liebe
Ich gab dir mein Geld
Und wo bist du jetzt, Marie?

Ich gab dir die Schlüssel
zu meiner Riesenwelt
Und wo bist du jetzt, Marie?

Doch ganz egal wo du dich rumtreibst:
Ich hoff' es geht dir schlecht!
Du Schlampe! Du Drecksau!
Ich hoff' es geht dir schlecht!
Du Schlampe! Du Drecksau!
Ich hoff' es geht dir schlecht!

Marie

Und schon kommst du angekrochen
Doch ich kenne Dich nicht mehr
Was hältst du davon, Marie

Mein Herz hast du mir gebrochen
Meine Welt war schrecklich leer
Doch jetzt geht's mir besser ohne dich, Marie

Doch ganz egal wo du dich rumtreibst:
Ich hoff' es geht dir schlecht!
Du Schlampe! Du Drecksau!
Ich hoff' es geht dir schlecht!
Du Schlampe! Du Drecksau!
Ich hoff' es geht dir schlecht!

Marie
