Wir können gar nicht singen

It was at a performance in some city, I remember there was an outrageous amount of money given, people turned the stage and the hall into splinters, they drowned us in flowers, so everything was normal, as always the little girls were the first to go crazy and faint in droves from the edge of the stage, then during the ballad everyone cried like crazy, a technician accidentally pressed the stop button, we stood there helplessly and the secret was out, we can't sing at all, we just look good

3 12, no one said anything, then the mob started to rage, with terrible hatred, instead of wet panties, plush toys, and flowers as before, they threw pig heads and dead frogs at us, we were hunted by the press like murderers, our stadium tour in Japan was canceled, the golf club kicked us out, they value good manners there, our mothers swore up and down, they didn't have a son, the mediator at the employment office furrowed his brow, you can't even sing well, you just look good

He entered us into the database as unemployed stars and additionally wrote underneath 'unplaceable', he filed us away, then he remembered: Oh man, we have, for long-term unemployed opera singers in the program, we didn't know about that and it gave him an idea, as a job creation measure he recorded this album, now you hear their voices, we just move our mouths, as always financially supported by the government, don't look so angry, but applaud us, we just can't sing, we just look good
