Men

Men take you by the hand
Men provide safety
Men cry secretly
Men require a lot of gentleness and
Men are so vulnerable
Men are simply irreplaceable in this world
 
Men buy women
Men are constantly under stress
Men flirt like idiots
Men lie on the phone
Men are always ready
Men tempt with their money and easy attitudes
 
Men have it hard, take it easy
Outwardly hard, but inside all soft
Are from childhood raised to be men
When is the man a man?
 
When is the man a man?
When is the man a man?
 
Men have muscles
Men are terribly strong
Men can do it all
Men get heart-attacks and
Men are lonely fighters
Must go through every wall, have to go further
 
Men have it hard, take it easy
Outwardly hard, but inside all soft
Are from childhood raised to be men
When is the man a man?
When is the man a man?
When is the man a man?
 
Men conduct wars
Men are even as babys drunk
Men smoke pipes
Men are terribly clever
Men build rockets
Men do everything very very precisely
 
When is the man a man?
When is the man a man?
 
Men don't get pregnant
Men get thinning hair
Men are humans too
Men are something peculiar and
Men are so sensitive
Men are simply irreplaceable in this world
 
Men have it hard, take it easy
Outwardly hard, but inside all soft
Are from childhood raised to be men
When is the man a man?
When is the man a man?
When is the man a man?
When's someone a man?
When's someone a man?

My suggestion for "bestechen" : convince/ are convincing or 'impress(us)'

Exactly. The line means "Men build their reputation on money and coolness".
