Lampedusa Lyrics

Sole e spiaggia

La dolce vita

That's what I deserve

For my hard work

I'm German

Always busy

We know how to work

Just in front of Lampedusa's coast

A ship is sinking full of refugees

Longing for a simple life in peace

Many find their rest in ocean's bed

Sole e spiaggia

La dolce vita

That's what I deserve

For my hard work

Why should I help

Those strangers

They will steel my work!

A man is crying for his beloved wife

The waves bring her last kiss to the white beach

"Please find a place to raise our son

I will watch you from the sky"

If I were the boy's

Desperate father

I would love him just the same

And protect him

Might it be I tried

To go to a place

Where I see a chance for him to grow?

Sole e spiaggia

La dolce vita

That's what I deserve

For my hard work

When I help one

There will come more

Spoiling my paradise

Sole e spiaggia

My life is great

I worked so hard and hard!

Take those beggers

Back to where they belong!

I'm on holiday!

Let me live my German dreams of life

Don't waste my time

Solve your problems - work like us

Don't bother me!

Your damn fate is

Not my concern

Don't touch

My land

Go away

Just go away
