Blackbirds BLN English translation
von Peter Fox & BENSH

Hey, you birds?

Blackbirds sing our song in the night, hey
Birds are diving deep into the cups again, oh
Hanging out with the crew, love galore
Picking from the barbecue, whole family satisfied

Dad says, "Don't mess around with beer", nah
Mom says, "You wouldn't even be here without me", nah
The crew chirping until four in the morning
Hallelujah, alhamdulillah, we're euphoric

Getting drunk (yeah-yeah)
Hey, something with rum in my glass (yeah-yeah)
Oh, an axe in my leg, smoke in my lungs (yeah-yeah)
Might kill me someday, so what? (Yeah-yeah)
There's always a reason, uh

Having a drink and no appointments
Singing hits in my bathrobe for my family, hey
All my kids find it embarrassing and cringy, but
Unfortunately, they have no alternative (okay, okay, okay, let's go, let's go)


Baby, everyone's high from love, yeah-yeah (hey)
Everything seems small when we fly, yeah-yeah (huh)
Mh, we went a bit overboard, yeah-yeah (yeah-yeah)
Mh, yeah-yeah, oh, oh (everyone's high, yeah)

Baby, everyone's high from love, yeah-yeah (so high, yeah)
Baby, everything seems small when we fly, yeah-yeah (so small, yeah)
Mh, we went a bit overboard, yeah-yeah (so high, yeah)
Mh, yeah-yeah (oh, oh)

Wallah, too high, baby, after us the gin flood (hey)
First rays of sunshine and beginning descent (woah, hey-hey, yeah)
Mix for the road, yeah, I think that sounds good (brr, woah, woah)
But no chance, someone always prevents

Me from leaving, my love (yeah)
Where there's no will, unfortunately, there's no way, my love
Your airwave kisses give me the vibe, mh-yeah
Shawty, take another hit and we'll take off (off)

Baby, everyone's high from love, yeah-yeah (love)
Baby, everything seems small when we fly, yeah-yeah
Mh, we went a bit overboard, yeah-yeah (hey)
Mh, yeah-yeah (woah), oh, oh (everyone's high, yeah)


Baby, everyone's high from love, yeah-yeah (so high, yeah)
Everything seems small when we fly, yeah-yeah (so small, yeah)
Mh, we went a bit overboard, yeah-yeah (so high, yeah)
Mh, yeah-yeah, oh, oh

Blackbirds sing our song in the night, hey
Birds are diving deep into the cups again, oh
Hanging out with the crew, love galore
Time flies, still awake until seven
