´90, ´74, ´54
And nothing more
God knows we tried it
All that we had
God knows what we gave
In these times of brave
Germany –
We tried a new mix
Here at home –
But finally no winning
New plans, new structure, a new generation
But no experience and no situation
In an open German country
We celebrated a party
Here with the whole world
We got back our proud
Austria –
We still had to wait
A better Spain
We still too young to win
South Africa –
Müller suspended
Style great, young and offensive
But not cool enough
Poland –
We beat ourself
With wrong Italy tactic
Löw made fans fall sick
God knows we tried it again and again
God knows we deserved it since years
The fans thought their dreams no one hears
But then… but then…
Brazil –
We found a real team
We found all the talents
With friendship and tactics
We wanted it so deep!
And had harmony you need
Thousands are in Brazil
Be near the dream to feel
80 millions with you at home
And thousands in the stadium
Glorious 7:1 in semi finals
And breaking so many old records
Our 16 goals top scorer star
1st Europeans winning ever in America
Such a great and fair playing team
Friendship, trust and harmony
And a goalie like a wall
In the end it fitted all
We got one more
Our new star four
Finally… Finally… we got our call
The new World Champion of Football!
Finally… Finally…
Finally we got it!
Finally… Finally…
Finally we got it!
