[bad word]  [bad word] Grossvater

Bei jedem Wickel mit der Mutter wor mei erster Weg von daham zu Dir.
Und Du host g'sogt: "Sie is' allan, des muat' versteh'n,

Dann host Du g'mant, das ganze Leb'n besteht aus Nehman und vl mehr
Geb'n.

Worauf i aus Dein' Kost'n in der Nocht

Zum Verputzen in der Diskothek, a poor Tog' d'rauf host' mi danoch

Wann Du vom Kriag erzh't host, wie Du [bad word] n

Und durch die Ort, wie Du dei Leb'n g'lebt host,

Niemols Gewolt, olles bered'n, ober a ka Ongst vor irgendwem.
 [bad word]  [bad word] Grandfather

After every quarrel with the mother, my first way lead from at home to you
And you said: She's alone, you gotta understand
everything passes [bad word] on, have a beer.
Then you told me, the whole life is about taking and about giving much more

After that in the night I took away
The few thousand schilling out of your cupboard
Consuming it in the Disco. couple of days later you asked for it
I denied it, cried hysterrically, your look was sad, then
I confessed
You just said: Well, forget it,
Money can't be that important!

When you talked about the war, how you faced [bad word] eye to eye
You offered a cigarette each other
The hand at the trigger was shaking out of fear
Or your wife, who bothered you the whole day with her singing
You just said: I like her
I don't have to hear everything she says

Grandfather, can't [bad word] over here for a quick cup of coffee?
Grandfather, i want to tell you so much, what i just now seem to understand
Grandfather, you were my first friend and I'll never forget that, grandfather

You weren't a superman, but you never pretended to be one either
Exactly for that reason there somehow was a power.
And the way you lived your life
gave me an idea, how one can possibly make it.
Your principle was: First think, have an opinion, stand up for it.
Never violence, talk about everything, but don't fear anyone either.
