Everybody is hibernating,
All's way too quiet.
No one is willing to make changes
except on their profile.
So, let me just take your rules apart
and so all incidentally move your life.
Hands up!
This is a raid!
Hands up!
Rebels everywhere!
You tell me your heros have all died
but, please, what about the rebels of tomorrow?
I'm really only here
to rebel
to rebel
to rebel
I'm just only here
to rebel
to rebel
to rebel.
We are rebels rebels, yes
We are rebels rebels, yes
Life is an ocean
we move it to and fro,
but really tall waves
are only made by rebels!
Don't just conform,
better watch out!
Faster than one can see
everything takes its course.
Just now life was still so nice
then suddenly only a cog in the system!
Hands up!
This is a raid!
Hands up!
Rebels everywhere!
You say everything was better in the past
we weren't around yet then, just more tinsel!
I'm only here
to rebel
to rebel
to rebel
I'm really only here
to rebel
to rebel
to rebel.
We are rebels rebels, yes
We are rebels rebels, yes
Life is an ocean
we move it to and fro,
but really tall waves
are only made by rebels!
Live wild, stay young and* better** be rebellious!
Live wild, stay young and better be rebellious!
You better behave like a rebel x2
Live wild, stay young and better be rebellious!
Collective uprising
this troupe needs resistors
Demolition-imagining technicians
as if we were China crackers
Against the flow there are ways to Rome, too
Turn the water into waves, ha
It's time for rebellion!
We are rebels rebels, yes
We are rebels rebels, yes
Life is an ocean
we move it to and fro,
but really tall waves
are only made by rebels!
Live wild, stay young and better be rebellious!
Live wild, stay young and better be rebellious!
You better behave like a rebel x2
Live wild, stay young!
* There is an oversight in the German lyrics which say "bleib jung uns sei ...". That 'uns' (=us) should be 'und' (=and)
** Not entirely sure how to better translate "gefaelligst" which expresses strong command form as in "You better be rebellious!". Let me know.
