Rock me all the time to the top
Rock me all the time to the top
Er war ein Punker und er lebte in der großen Stadt
He was a punk and he lived in the big city
Es war in Wien, war Vienna, wo er alles tat
It was in Vienna, where he did it all
Er hatte Schulden, denn er trank, doch ihn liebten alle Frauen
He had debts because he drank, yet all the women loved him.
Und jede rief: "Come and rock me Amadeus!"
And everyone called: 'Come and rock me Amadeus!'
Er war Superstar, er war populär
He was a superstar, he was so popular
Er war so exaltiert, because er hatte Flair

Er war ein Virtuose, war ein Rockidol

Und alles rief: "Come and rock me Amadeus!"

Es war um 1780 und es war in Wien
It was around 1780 and it was in Vienna
No Plastik money anymore, die Banken gegen ihn

Woher die Schulden kamen, war wohl jedermann bekannt

Und alles ruft noch heute: "Come and rock me Amadeus!"
