Egoist English translation
von Falco

The whole world revolves around me
Because I am just an egoist
The person closest to me
Is me, I am an egoist

The whole world revolves around me
Because I am just an egoist
The person closest to me
Is me, I am an egoist
An egoist, an egoist, an egoist, an egoist

At the top of the list, that's where I stand
You have to forgive me, but I love myself
Even though I am extremely and thoroughly critical, I have
Only myself in mind all day long

I have a mirror above my bed
So that my own reflection watches over my sleep
And I don’t want to want anyone, no, I want to be wanted
Until I get what I need, I never keep still


The whole world revolves around me
Because I am just an egoist
The person closest to me
Is me, I am an egoist

The whole world revolves around me
Because I am just an egoist
The person closest to me
Is me, I am an egoist
An egoist, an egoist, an egoist, an egoist

Love comes from loving, and I start with myself
And with a bit of luck, one day it’ll be your turn
I give my ego a special treatment every day
But mostly I give myself everything and prefer it pure, sure

Every day my worldview exists longer
I recognize myself and I am newly in love
The stars write my name in the firmament
So it burns brightly in your eyes

The whole world revolves around me
Because I am just an egoist
The person closest to me
Is me, I am an egoist


The whole world revolves around me
Because I am just an egoist
The person closest to me
Is me, I am an egoist
