this is where those movies make their money
it doesn't hurt, it's more like being thirsty
in lonely airport waves, and drugged-up, dimlit raves
this is where those movies make their money

this is where the wisdom hits the airwaves
this is where yastrzemski makes the big play
in our cars and in our homes, with everything on loan
this is where the wisdom hits the airwaves

it's time for a bit of in-the-bed disco
it's time for a bit of in-the-bed disco

Christiane, bitte ein kuss
Christiane, bitte ein kuss
Christiane

you are so much chaos
so love your chaos
doin' it is wrestling underwater
you are so much chaos
so love your chaos now

it's time for a bit of in-the-bed disco
it's time for a bit of in-the-bed disco

Christiane, bitte ein kuss
Christiane, bitte ein kuss
Christiane, do you wanna
Christiane, bitte ein kuss

her hips
her hips are like seashells
and i can hear the ocean when i listen

her hips
her hips are like seashells
and i can hear the ocean when i listen

her hips
her hips are like seashells
and i can hear the ocean when i

Christiane, bitte ein kuss
Christiane, bitte ein kuss
Christiane, do you wanna
Christiane, bitte ein kuss

    General Comment:for anyone who's walked the frigid mile to plassmann at st. bonaventure U. at eight AM, then left because you lived next to a coke head, but for that you were prepared for a winter living above 9PM-5AM road construction every work night, this song might make you feel funny.

    General Comment:Ok, I'm Dutch, had hundreds of boring hours full of 'the great teachings of the German language' and I can tell you you're both right.

    'Bitte' actually means 'please' as well as it means 'to ask for'

    As for the 'ein Kuss' part:
    'ein' means 'one' aswell as it is the German word for 'a'.
    'ein Kuss' can therefore mean 'one kiss' or 'a kiss'.

    There you have it :)

    Furthermore, I think it's kinda cool he actually writes explicitly sex-related lyrics since he always seems so damn shy :)

    General Comment:"this is where yastrzemski makes the big play"

    Carl Yastrzemski was a baseball players for the Red Sox. Where he made the "big play" is third base. So, another oral sex reference.

    General Comment:yep. when i saw him in concert june 7 he said, before he began this song,

    "girls...be brave enough to ask for what you want. and boys, be brave enough to give it." then... "because if you can't get it together and give good head...you're wasting time."

    i concur.
