Translation
Complicated
I say "no" and you understand "yes",
Spoil the meaning, whatever I say.
If you don't get it ask again!
As if it is so hard!
I'm in the bathroom, you knock on the door:
"Are you alright? What happened?
I've been waiting here for ages!
How long are you getting ready?"
Not long anymore, just the hair!
I'll be there in a second, what's all this questioning?
I'm doing this for you too, so wait!
and you like it, so don't be nervous!
But today is your lucky day, I've got a dictionary for you.
I'm not complicated, you just don't understand me.
There is a big question mark, right there in your face.
I'm not complicated, you just don't understand me.
I say "yes" and you understand "no",
Tell yourself something, you talk to me.
How do you understand what I mean?
If you don't listen to me?
You imitate me in front of our friends.
"Come on, baby, I'm just kidding!"
Thanks a lot for your comment!
Do you really think that looks cool?
In front of other people you act like a boss.
When I talk, you turn away.
At home you bring me breakfast in bed.
I'm sorry, truth hurts.
But today is your lucky day, I've got a dictionary for you.
I'm not complicated, you just don't understand me.
There is a big question mark, right there in your face.
I'm not complicated, you just don't understand me.
How can I explain it to you when you don't speak my language?
When so many of my words sound like Chinese to you?
Come, I blindfold you, maybe you'll understand me blind.
Ah, that doesn't make sense, anyway, I'll take you like that.
When you hold your next monolog, excited like a child,
Then I pretend to be interested and just don't listen.
But today is your lucky day, I've got a dictionary for you.
I'm not complicated, you just don't understand me.
There is a big question mark, right there in your face.
I'm not complicated, you just don't understand me.

The previous translation was good also! But I have tried to provide a modified translation, matching with the German lyrics! Hope that you all will support my efforts!
Namika is the best!!!
