DNA Songtext
von Melle

I was just the same as every other kid
Looked up to you and copied what you did
When you told me something, I would ask you ′why?'
Thought that everything was possible and you said I was right

I thought that if you said it then it must be true
I figured if you liked it I would like it too
I wonder about the person you were at my age
′Cause I can clearly see me in your funny ways

But now I'm my own man
Taking a shot at my own plans
Holding my life in my own hands
I'm glad that we′re not the same
But you′re still written in my DNA

Playing in a band with my older sister
On that little guitar
Spending half a summer learning how to whistle
Drove you mad in the car


Still I didn't always feel like going to my second home
I never asked for that, it′s not the life I chose
When I've got something good, I don′t need something new
I don't think that I got that from you

But now I′m my own man
Taking a shot at my own plans
Holding my life in my own hands
I'm glad that we're not the same
But you′re still written in my DNA

Swimming in the North Sea
Your funny bedtime stories
How we′d wake you in the morning
And all the things you taught me

But was the way that you would hold me
Your way of saying sorry?
I never see you anymore
Well I guess that I was born to be my own man

Taking a shot at my own plans
Holding my life in my own hands
I'm glad that we′re not the same
But I still see you in my DNA


I still see you in my DNA
I still see you in my DNA
I still see you in my DNA
