Rock Me Amadeus
Vienna Calling



Rock Me Amadeus

He was the first punk ever to set foot on this earth
He was a genius from the day of his birth
He could play the piano like ringing a bell
And everybody screamed "Come on, rock me Amadeus"

He was a superstar, he was dynamite
And whatever he did, it seemed to be alright
And he drank and he cursed and he fooled around
But when the women would shout

Rock me Amadeus,
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus,
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus,
Oh oh oh Amadeus

With a bottle of wine in one hand and a woman in the other
'Cause he was a ladies man
He never stopped to worry what the next day would bring
Because the girls would sing
Rock me Amadeus

His mind was on rock and roll and having fun
Because he lived so fast he had to die so young
But he made his mark in history
Still ev'rybody says
Rock me Amadeus

=====

Ooo rock me Amadeus
Rock me Amadeus...
Rock rock rock rock me Amadeus
Rock me all the time to the top

Er war ein Punker und er lebte in der groen Stadt       he was a punker and he lived in the biggest city
Es war Wien, war Vienna wo er alles tat                 it was in Vienna where he did everything
Er hatte Schulden denn er trank                         he had debts because he drank
Doch ihn liebten alle Frauen                            but all the women loved him
Und jede rief:                                          and all of them shouted
"Come on and rock me Amadeus"

Amadeus Amadeus, Amadeus

Es war um 1780 und es war in Wien                       It was in 1780 and it was in Vienna
No plastic money anymore                                no plastic money anymore
Die Banken gegen ihn                                    the banks were against him
Woher die Schulden kamen                                It was well-known by everyone
War wohl jedermann bekannt                              where his debts came from
Er war ein Mann der Frauen                              he was a ladies' man
Frauen liebten seinen Punk                              ladies loved his punk
