Wenn getanzt wird will ich führen
Auch wenn ihr euch alleine dreht
Lasst euch ein wenig kontrollieren
Ich zeige euch wie's richtig geht
(If you’ll dance I’ll guide you
Even if you turn to leave
Let go of a little control
I’ll show you how it really goes)
Wir bilden einen lieben Reigen
Die Freiheit spielt auf allen Geigen
Musik kommt aus dem Weißen Haus
Und vor Paris steht Mickey Mouse
(We’re building a beloved dancing circle (round dance)
Freedom plays on the violin
Music comes from the White House
And outside of Paris stands Mickey Mouse)
We're all living in Amerika
Amerika ist wunderbar
We're all living in Amerika
Amerika
Amerika
Ich kenne Schritte die sehr nützen
Und werde euch vor Fehltritt schützen
Und wer nicht tanzen will am Schluss
Weiss noch nicht dass er tanzen muss
(I know which steps are very useful
And I’ll shootout (point out) your mis-steps
And whosoever isn’t dancing at the end
Doesn’t know that they must dance)
We're all living in Amerika
Amerika ist wunderbar
We're all living in Amerika
Amerika
Amerika
We're all living in Amerika
Coca Cola, Wonderbra
We're all living in Amerika

This is not a love song
This is not a love song
I don't sing my mother tongue
No, this is not a love song
We're all living in Amerika
Amerika ist wunderbar
We're all living in Amerika
Amerika
Amerika
We're all living in Amerika
Coca Cola, Sometimes war
We're all living in Amerika

This is a song by a German Industrial Metal band called Rammstein. And damn fine it is too. The translations are rough at best, but the general feeling is unmistakeable.
The interesting thing about this song, and the album it is taken from (Reise Reise)is that it seems to be the most successful release they have ever had in the good ol' US of A....
I'll leave you to make up your own minds about that......
