Friedrich, he looks angry

Friedrich, oh Friedrich,

Doesn’t look too bitter

From top to bottom to shoe,

As if you were looking at your grave.

Friedrich, oh Friedrich,

Don’t be ugly,

Swallowing hatred and anger,

Don’t look down, look forward.

Friedrich, oh Friedrich,

Don’t look so sour,

As if you were looking at sour earth,

Where was Fritchen’s birthplace.

Friedrich, oh Friedrich,

Let yesterday rest, draw the line

under the past,

Don’t feel sorry for yourself anymore.

You’re not the little traffic light man,

Like Robertel, like Christian,

You are a great thinker

And soon the head of state.

So, Frederick the Great,

Not much more than that, be patient.

Don’t scratch with your hooves,

You will be contacted shortly.

He was sworn in shortly thereafter.

So don’t look too insulting.
