Mein Teil (English Version)

Rammstein · Other Songs - Rammstein

Looking for a well-built eighteen to thirty-year-old to be slaughtered
The Master Butcher

Today I will meet a gentleman
He likes me so much he could eat me up
Soft parts and even hard ones
are on the menu

Because you are
what you eat
and you know
what it is

It is my part – no
My part – no
Because that's my part – no
My part – no

The dull blade – good and proper
I'm bleeding heavily and feeling sick
Although I have to fight to stay awake
I keep eating while in convulsions

It's just so well seasoned
and so nicely flambéed
and so lovingly served on porcelain
And with it, a good wine and gentle candlelight
Yeah, I'll take my time
You've got to have some culture

Because you are
what you eat
and you know
what it is

It is my part – no
My part – no
Because that's my part – no
Yes it's my part – no

A cry will ascend to heaven
It will cut through hosts of angels
Feather-flesh will shriekingly fall
from the top of the clouds onto my childhood

It is my part – no
My part – no
Because that's my part – no
My part – no

Mein Teil (English Version)

Rammstein's 'Mein Teil (English Version)' translates the band's signature industrial metal and gothic rock aesthetic into a direct, unapologetic English delivery. Released as part of their extensive catalog of translated tracks, the song maintains the raw, mechanical energy characteristic of the group's work, featuring Ulrich Wild's distinctive vocals and the band's trademark distorted guitars. While the original German lyrics explore themes of personal ownership and emotional entanglement, the English adaptation preserves the song's aggressive rhythm and dark atmosphere. This track exemplifies Rammstein's approach to expanding their reach without diluting their unique sonic identity, serving as a bridge between their German roots and international audiences who appreciate their heavy, rhythmic sound.
