Küssen Kann Man Nicht Alleine
Max Raabe
Can't Kiss Alone
I can handle everything on my own
You'd be amazed at what I can do
And because no one knows me better
I am my own assistant
Hold my own poker rounds
Psychoanalysis sessions
Recite poems to myself
Sing with myself in a double choir
Defeat myself in chess games
Forgive myself for most things
Can defend myself
Even bribe myself in doubt
Pass myself the baton
And even confess to myself
But there's a point where I fail
Where even others wouldn't succeed
Kissing, you can't do alone
And I'll tell you the reason:
Kissing is definitely not a solo act
Because I need another mouth for that
Alone, it's impossible
I know for sure it won't work
Attempts end miserably
It's just a waste of time
I should take action
And finally understand
Meditation won't help
Kissing can only be done by two
I'd be ready for that
I have myself under control
I'm my captain and my ship
Even if I get into debt
I lead myself out of all crises
Spy on myself
Hire myself and fire myself
I crash into myself
Then hit myself on the nose
I read my own palm
And clap against the wall
I laugh at myself and lie to myself
That's something I'm really good at
But: I can't kiss alone
And I'll tell you the reason:
Kissing is definitely not a solo act
Because I need another mouth for that
You're right here
How about I try with you
Kissing can only be done by two
I think you know what's up
The solution usually works in pairs
When we throw ourselves on the couch
The path to a kiss is not far
I'd be ready for that
