Sometimes my body seems so alien to me
– Heiansdo schéngt mäi Kierper mir sou friem
I quiet it down by watching TV
– Ech berouegen et andeems ech fernseh kucken
Grow restless and grow hungry
– Gitt onroueg a gëtt hongereg
As the water rises up around me
– Wann D ‘ Waasser ronderëm mech eropgeet
You come onscreen
– Dir Kommt Op De Bildschierm
So good-looking it’s obscene
– Sou gutt ausgesinn datt et obszön ass
I put my fist into my mouth and scream
– Ech leeën Meng Fauscht an de Mond a jäizen
Some things, it seems, are catching up with me
– E puer Saachen, et schéngt, fänken mech un
And as it rises to my chin, I should really stop watching
– A wéi et op mäi Kinn klëmmt, sollt ech wierklech ophalen ze kucken
And as I reach for the remote, it is rushing down my throat
– A wann hien huet repented, Verzeien Him.
I let it in, I start to swim
– Ech loossen et eran, ech fänken un ze schwammen
I grow many arms and legs and then I start to sing
– Ech wuesse vill Äerm A Been an da fänken ech un ze sangen
And all of my peers, they had such potential
– An all meng Kollegen haten Esou E Potenzial
The swamp, it took them down
– De Sumpf, hien huet hatt ofgerappt
And my love, I have to tell you
– A Meng Léift, ech muss iech soen
I kissed them all and let them drown, oh
– Ech hunn hatt all gekësst an hatt erdrénke gelooss, oh
You didn’t see me, just another drunken groupie
– Dir hutt mech net gesinn, just eng aner gedronk Groupie
So when your hand reached out
– Also wann är Hand ausgestreckt ass
I just pushed you further down
– Ech hunn dech just méi wäit gedréckt
Well, do you see me now?
– Gesitt dir mech elo?
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Do you see me?)
– Ah, ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Gesitt dir mech?)
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
– Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Do you see me now?)
– Ah, ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Gesitt dir mech elo?)
Creature from the deep, do I haunt you in your sleep?
– Kreatur Vun Déift, verfollegen ech dech Am Schlof?
My tentacles so tender, as I caress your cheek
– Meng Tentakelen esou delikat wéi ech är Wang strecken
Did you know how big I would become?
– Wousst dir wéi grouss ech géif ginn?
And how much I would eat?
– A wéi vill géif ech iessen?
So glamorous and ravenous as I drag you off your feet
– Sou glamourös an hongereg wéi ech dech Vun de Féiss zéien
There’s nothing you can do
– Et gëtt näischt wat dir maache kënnt
Some things, it seems, are catching up with you
– E puer Saachen, et schéngt, fänken iech un
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Do you see me?)
– Ah, ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Gesitt dir mech?)
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
– Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Do you see me?)
– Ah, ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Gesitt dir mech?)
You said I would be nothing, but look, I’m really something
– Dir sot ech wier näischt, awer kuckt, ech si wierklech eppes
Many arms around the mast as your ship starts cracking
– Vill Waffen ronderëm De Mast Wärend Äert Schëff ufänkt ze knacken
Will you see me through the pain?
– Wäert dir mech duerch De Péng gesinn?
Have you changed? Well, so have I
– Hutt dir iech geännert? Gutt ech och
As I fix you in the gaze of my one unblinking eye
– Wärend ech dech am Bléck vu mengem blénkegen A fixéieren
Do I terrify?
– Angscht ech?
And all of my peers, they had such potential
– An all meng Kollegen haten Esou E Potenzial
The swamp, it took them down
– De Sumpf, hien huet hatt ofgerappt
And my love, I have to tell you
– A Meng Léift, ech muss iech soen
I kissed them all and let them drown, oh
– Ech hunn hatt all gekësst an hatt erdrénke gelooss, oh
You didn’t see me, just another drunken groupie
– Dir hutt mech net gesinn, just eng aner gedronk Groupie

– Also wann är Hand ausgestreckt ass
I just pushed you further down
– Ech hunn dech just méi wäit gedréckt
Well, do you see me now?
– Gesitt dir mech elo?
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Do you see me?)
– Ah, ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Gesitt dir mech?)
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
– Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Do you see me now?)
– Ah, ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Gesitt dir mech elo?)
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Do you see me?)
– Ah, ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Gesitt dir mech?)
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
– Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Do you see me now?)

Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Do you see me?)
– Ah, ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah (Gesitt dir mech?)
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
