Bück Dich (Bend Down) English
Rammstein · Other Songs - Rammstein
turn your face away from me
your face means nothing to me
bend down
A human on all fours
I take him on a walk
ambling along the corridor
I am disappointed
Now he comes backwards towards me
Honey stays stuck on the garter
I am disappointed, totally disappointed
Bend down...
your face doesn't interest me
The human has bent down
and moved into a good light
I show him what you can do
and I start to cry
The human stammers a prayer
out of fear because it goes worse for me
he tried to bend down even more
tears run up the back
Bend down...
Bend down, I command you
turn your face away from me
your face means nothing to me
bend down once more
Bend down...
Bück Dich (Bend Down) English
Rammstein's "Bück Dich" stands as a pivotal moment in the band's evolution, marking their transition from industrial metal to a more polished, theatrical rock sound. Released as an English-language version of their iconic 1999 track, the song retains the group's signature blend of distorted guitars, rhythmic percussion, and Klaus Meine's commanding vocals while adapting the melody for international audiences. The recording exemplifies the band's commitment to dark, brooding atmospheres and theatrical performance, serving as a bridge between their early experimental phase and the massive global success of albums like *Mutter*. As a staple of their discography, the English translation ensures the song's enduring appeal, allowing new listeners to engage with Rammstein's unique fusion of Germanic poetic sensibilities and heavy metal intensity without language barriers.
