Helden von Heute / Heroes of today
(Falco/Ponger)
Translation by John Hickey

We have the foot on the gas
And everything firmly under control
We don't miss a single trend
Our outfits are the newest style
And now the whistle (three, four) hurrah!
Yesterday our sisters bought
Costumes like in a western
They say those are extremely comfortable
And also very beautiful
Worries, no no We have none

Oh oh oh, what a fashionable world picture
What a wonderful life
My life, your life, our life
High life spleen
Say, that’s beautiful, so beautiful

We always invent new games
There are many games to play
Bread and games are in demand
‘No future’ extremely trendy
New Wave
Yes new wave is the word these days
For having nothing better to do
Than to run after those things
That were already lost yesterday, you'll see
Worries, yes yes, we'll have tomorrow

Oh oh oh oh
We have the right world picture
Oh oh oh oh
From today, we'll take part (in this)
Oh oh oh oh
We have the future in sight
Oh oh oh oh
We are the heroes of today!
Everything waits, everything waits
For the heroes of today, of today.
