rammstein ~ stripped
Come with me
Into the trees
We'll lay on the grass
And let the hours pass

Take my hand
Come back to the land
Let's get away
Just for one day

Let me see you
Stripped

Metropolis
Has nothing on this
You're breathing in fumes
I taste when we kiss

Take my hand
Come back to the land
Where everything's ours
For a few hours

Let me see you
Stripped

Let me hear you
Make decisions
Without your television
Let me hear you speaking
Just for me

Let me see you
Stripped

Let me hear you
Make decisions
Without your television
Let me hear you speaking
Just for me

Let me see you
Stripped

2. Originally a Depeche Mode song
but Rammstein definitely got it right - the original sucks in comparison

3. hoping this to make up for it: "Spiel Mit Mir"
Wir teilen Zimmer und das Bett
Bruderlein komm sei so nett
Bruderlein komm fass mich an
rutsch ganz dicht an mich heran

Vor dem Bett ein schwarzes Loch
und hinein fallt jedes Schaf
bin schon zu alt und zahl sie doch
denn ich find keinen Schlaf

Unterm Nabel im Geast
wartet schon ein weisser Traum
Bruderlein komm halt dich fest
und schuttel mir das Laub vom Baum

Spiel ein Spiel mit mir
gib mir deine Hand und
spiel mit mir
ein Spiel
spiel mit mir
ein Spiel
spiel mit mir
weil wir alleine sind
spiel mit mir
ein Spiel
Vater Mutter Kind

Dem Bruderlein schmerzt die Hand
er dreht sich wieder an die Wand
der Bruder hilft mir dann und wann
damit ich schlafen kann

Spiel ein Spiel
mit mir
gib mir deine Hand und
spiel mit mir
ein Spiel
spiel mit mir
ein Spiel
spiel mit mir
weil wir alleine sind
spiel mit mir
ein Spiel
Vater Mutter Kind

6. Oh I beg to differ. The orginal DM song is beautiful and haunting.
The Rammstein version is hilarious though. It sounds like Hans und Franz.

8. although I have never heard the DM version (not a huge fan)
I DO agree with you and find the Rammstein version amusing sounding despite whatever disturbing and not funny topic the lyrics refer to. it's his vocals and him singing in English that make it sound so funny.

5. I've heard that before, very good song.
What American listeners of Rammstein don't understand, because of the language, is what Rammstein actually sings about. Spiel Mit Mir means Play With Me (in a disgusting sense). It's a song about child abuse. Tir means Beast and the song is about a father abusing his child and the mother, knowing, does nothing about it. They, of course, are also very political. :D
