Lyrics: 

There are some people who don’t know how to care. Let their egos be wide and their throats be bare. It’s hard when people don’t cooperate, be with whoever’s safe and sound. Keep your head in the right place and your heart in moral ground. 

Moral ground. 

There are some people who don’t know how to live. Let their ways be close minded, their thoughts lacking depth. It’s hard to be the underdog all the time, being influenced by greed. The earth lacks humanity’s sacred heart, come and plant that seed. 

Things are better than they were before, so keep your head above ground and keep moving forward cause you beat the score, you beat the score.

Now, Christmas comes the same time each year, Feliz Navidad, spread that Christmas cheer
Now, Christmas comes the same time each year, Feliz Navidad, spread that Christmas cheer


Now we got through the family part of the day, reading parts, talking horror, making voices, hooray
But now it’s up to the three of us to create the perfect Christmas Eve, make sure that Santa ain’t late,
It’s time to put down the business of life, go fucking with the familia, without much strife.
So open up your forgotten Christmas caroling book, no alumni, just the fun guy, time to sing, eat, and cook.
Let’s forget about the grades, go kling your glöckchens, and jump on Santa’s fake sleigh.
As the Latins say, In dulci ju bilo, kommt segnet uns als froh.
The creepy Nicolaus isn’t here to stay, say he ain’t even real, but he’s still here to create the perfect Christmas Eve, make sure that Santa ain’t late.


Weinachten kommt, und Weinachten geht, aber das beste Weinachten ist das Weinachten das lebt.
Ich würde natürlich viel lieber in Deutschland sein, im Schnee spielen, mit Oma, und mit Glühwein.
Aber anstatt dessen sind wir hier, jetzt geht es um die Familie, nicht um das Bier.
Der Nikolaus kommt vorbei an dem Haus, wie eine Maus, die man niemals fängt, aber immer vorbei schaut.
Ich komme jetzt auf alle Fälle von dem Himmel her, es ist mir ein Ros entsprungen, auch ohne Gewehr.
Also jetzt geht es um TKKG, und wie viele Lichtlein brennen, aber ohne Kurt, und auch ohne flennen.

Weinachten kommt immer jedes Jahr, also kling Glöckchen Weißröckchen, Nikolaus ist im Tal.
Weinachten kommt immer jedes Jahr, also kling Glöckchen Weißröckchen, Nikolaus ist im Tal.

Christmas Cheer (Weißröckchen)

My first German single, as a demo version. Stay tuned for studio version coming soon!

German lyrics:

Du willst mir helfen, mit bestem Willen
Du willst mein Freund sein, mit bestem Willen
Ich habe dir vertraut, mit bestem Willen
Und du hast mir vertraut, mit bestem Willen

Der kleine Rico war so niedlich als er 4 war. Er wollte niemals eine kleine Schwester. Ich springte immer nur rum ganz Vogelscheuchen dumm, sang mein lieblings Lied la la la la zoom.
Dann wurde ich älter und auch ein bisschen kälter, manchmal aggressiv, Angst vor Schlangen, kuck! Die im Feld da. 
Dan kriegte ich Insta, wurde plötzlich ganz hässlich.
Jetzt ist das Ziel bliebe nur ruhig, es lässt dich. Ich habe nach und nach viel Freundschaften verloren, ist auch ok, die können sich ficken, zu viel Managen und Drohungen. Jetzt müssen wir die guten Leute behalten, und nur wenn du mich rausschmeißt, werde ich die Liebe ausschalten. 


Es gibt Momente im Leben, da muss man die Notbremse ziehen. Genau wie Charlie oder Rolf, die Situation stornieren. Wir Männer brauchen klare Worte oder Frieden. Ich denke auf dem Friedhof, tue dann in Träumen marschieren. Wenn man das Grab nicht findet und weniger Freunde hat, dann bringt das dich zum Lachen, genau wie Mario Barth. Ich schrieb diese Strophe mitten im Dorf, kann nicht mehr schlafen, doch nur lachen, mitten in Lachendorf. Meistens wenn mir Sachen passieren, werde ich genervt, fliege dann einfach raus, werde raus gesperrt. Doch Lessmann und Ziller, die fragen warum, man kann den Grund doch sehen, man ist doch nicht dumm.

Translation: 
"The Best Intentions" title 

You want to help me, with the best intentions. 
You want to be my friend, with the best intentions. 
I trusted you, with the best intentions. 
And you trusted me, with the best intentions. 

Little Rico was so cute when he was 4, he never wanted a little sister. I always just jumped around, super scarecrow-loving dumb, sang my favorite song (scatting the scarecrow song from Wizard of Oz). Then, I grew up, became a little more cold hearted, and at times aggressive. I was scared of snakes. Look at that one in the field! Then I got instagram, and became super ugly. Now the goal is to just stay calm, it (social media) allows you to. From time to time I would lose significant friendships, but that's okay, they can go fuck themselves, too much micro managing and threats. Now our job is to keep the good people in our lives, and only if you kick me out will I stop loving you. 

There are moments in life when you gotta pull the emergency break, just like Charlie or Rolf, stop the situation. (reference to the famous German story Das Doppelte Lottchen, a German version of Parent Trap) We men need to either receive clear words, or be left in peace. I'm thinking in the graveyard, and go marching in my dreams. Not being able to find the grave and having less friends are things that just make you laugh, just like Mario Barth (German comedian). I wrote this verse in the middle of the village, can't sleep anymore, only laugh, in the middle of Lachendorf (German town). Mostly when things happen to me I get pissed off, just get the fuck out, and get locked out. But Lessman und Ziller, they ask why. It's actually pretty easy to see the reason if one isn't stupid.
