Men take you in their arms
Men give comfort
Men cry secretly
Men need a lot of tenderness and
Men are so vulnerable
Men are just irreplacable in this world
 
Men buy women
Men are always on the run
Men flirt like crazy
Men lie on the telephone
Men are ready all the time
Men captivate with their money and nonchalance
 
Men have a hard life, but take it easy
Hard on the outside, soft at the inside
As children, they're already groomed to turn into men
When is a man a man?
 
When is a man a man?
 
Men have muscles
Men are so strong
Men can do everything
Men get a heart attack and
Men are lonely fighters
Have to get through every wall, always have to keep going
 
Men have a hard life, but take it easy
Hard on the outside, soft at the inside
When being a child they already are turned into men
When is a man a man?
 
Men wage wars
Men are already drunk when they are yet babies
Men smoke pipe
Men are extremly clever
Men build rockets
Men do everything as precisely as they can
 
When is a man a man?
 
Men get no children
Men get thin hair
Men are human beings too
Men are a bit strange and
Man are so vulnerable
Men are just irreplacable in this world

Maenner sind schon als Baby blau, of course has something to do with being a baby o.O

It means that they are already "blue" as a baby... babies get born blue - and blue as in inebriated!!!

Rhetoric ;o)

Inform us if you had an insight into Grönemeyer's mind ;) As long as that takes, the line is correct! You could talk me into putting "drunk" there, but that's the only change I'd make.

Me too. It's also a pun on blue being the color male babies are dressed with.

You're right. It's a pun that makes us smile. The two meanings of 'blau' : 1. blue as colour for male babies (pink for girls), 2. 'blau' meaning 'drunk'.
Of course babies are not drunk, but that's the funny side of this play with words.

"When being a child they already are turned into men" => The translation most closely to the original meaning would be "As children, they're already groomed to turn into men"

"always have to go on" => "have to keep going"

"Men lead wars" => "Men wage wars"

"Men do everything, yes exactly" => "Men do everything as precisely as they can"
