Rammstein's new album, Zeit, will be released in late April and the industrial icons recently dropped "Zick Zack," the second single from the successor to 2019's untitled record. As is typical, the lyrics to this latest track are sung in German and, below, you will find the English translation.
In early March, Rammstein revealed the Zeit album cover and set April 29 as the official release date while also offering up the title track as an advance preview of the new LP. The album's track listing, however, was not among the divulged details and, instead, the band sent fans on a worldwide geocaching-like scavenger hunt to uncover the names of each of the 11 new songs.
While the lyrics to "Zeit" held some pretty deep, thought-provoking significance (read more about the song's meaning here), "Zick Zack" is quite the opposite — another example of Rammstein's more slapstick side with a crass overview of cosmetic surgery. We'll cut right to the chase — there's a lyrics about removing belly fat so "now the penis sees the sun again."
You can read the entire English translation to "Zick Zack" below.
Rammstein, "Zick Zack" Lyrics (via LyricsTranslate)
Nicer, bigger, harder
Tighter, smoother, strongerYour breasts are too small
Two pounds of silicone are fine
Cut sacks from the eyes
Mill the nose, suck fat offWe quickly delete two ribs
And insert a tube into your lips
In the cheeks, in the forehead
Botox just into your brainZigzag, zigzag, cut it off
Zigzag, zigzag, short and sweetAll sagging above the chin
Can be pulled in the neck
Implants in the face
And we lift your buttocksKnife, swab, general anesthesia
Seven kilos of riding pants and
Belly fat in the bio bin
Now the penis sees the sun againZigzag, zigzag, cut it off
Tick tack, tick tack, you will be old
Your time is running out slowlyWho wants to be beautiful, must suffer
Cut it off, cut it out, cut ut away
Needle, thread, scissors, light
It can't go without painTighten the cheeks, carve the cheekbones
Splash the waste into lips
Wrinkles rustle on the scalpel
Foreskin gone, very relevantIsn't the woman in the man happy?
Anyway, everything is goneZigzag, zigzag, cut it off
Tick tack, tick tack, you will be old
Your time is running out slowlyWho wants to be beautiful, must suffer
Vanity is never modest
Needle, thread, scissors, light
It can't go without painNicer, bigger, harder
Tighter, smoother, stronger
