Rock me Amadeus Rock me Amadeus
Rock me rock me rock meAmadeusRock me all the time to the top

 

Er war ein Punker

Und er lebte in der großen Stadt

Es war Wien, war Vienna

Wo er alles tat

Er hatte Schulden denn er trank

Doch ihn liebten alle Frauen

Und jede rief:

Come on and rock me Amadeus

 

Er war Superstar

Er war populär

Er war so exaltiert

because er hatte Flair

Er war ein Virtuose

War ein Rockidol

Und alles rief:

Come on and rock me Amadeus

 

Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus Amadeus,

oh oh oh Amadeus

 

Come on and rock me Amadeus

Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus Amadeus,

oh oh oh Amadeus

 

Es war um 1780

Und es war in Wien

No plastic money anymore

Die Banken gegen ihn

Woher die Schulden kamen

War wohl jedermann bekannt

Er war ein Mann der Frauen

Frauen liebten seinen Punk

 

Er war Superstar

Er war populär

Er war so exaltiert

Genau das war sein Flair

Er war ein Virtuose

War ein Rockidol

Und alles ruft noch heute:

Come on and rock me Amadeus

 

Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus Amadeus,

oh oh oh Amadeus

Come and rock me Amadeus….

 Rock me rock me rock meAmadeusRock me all the time to the top

 

He was a punk

And he lived in the big city

It was Vienna, was Vienna

Where he did everything

He was in debt because he drank

But he was loved by all women

And each one shouted:

Come on and rock me Amadeus

 

He was a superstar

He was popular

He was so effusive

Because he had flair

He was a virtuoso

Was a rock idol

And everyone shouted:

Come on and rock me Amadeus

 

Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus Amadeus,

oh oh oh Amadeus

 

Come on and rock me Amadeus

Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus Amadeus,

oh oh oh Amadeus

 

It was around 1780

And it was in Vienna

No plastic money anymore

The banks against him

Where the debts came from

Was known by every one

He was a man of women

Women loved his punk

 

He was a superstar

He was popular

He was so effusive

Just this was his flair

He was a virtuoso

Was a rock idol

And even nowadays everyone shouts:

Come on and rock me Amadeus

 

Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus Amadeus,

oh oh oh Amadeus

Come and rock me Amadeus….

About the Author: Sandra Rösner

Hello everybody! I studied English and American Studies, Communication Science, and Political Science at the University of Greifswald. Since I have been learning English as a second language myself for almost 20 years now I know how difficult it is to learn a language other than your native one. Thus, I am always willing to keep my explanations about German grammar comprehensible and short. Further, I am inclined to encourage you to speak German in every situation. Regards, Sandra

    Why would you use effusive for the translation of exaltiert? I believe exalted would be a better choice. in reference to:
