It’s a very literal translation, not very lyrical but I hope it helps When we used to be Little shits, we didn’t know a lot but we liked to play R.A.F and Police, I never wanted to be a cop, ‘cause cops are just shit.

Refrain: Red army fraction you used to be a wicked/cool bunch -“- , there was something going on/up with you -“- I always thought you were amazing Sadly I was too young, To join you already But my heart has always been beating for the red army fraction /end The R.A.F only/always failed To explain what they were dreaming about The (political) theory was intellectual and complicated, The little guy they were fighting for Didn’t quiet get that. So the state could easily isolate them as an enemy of the people/state The bigwigs/fat cat shat themselves if you only said RAF They were a nightmare that haunted (them) every night /Ref. get´s repeated until the end of the song

When we used to be Little shits, we didn’t know a lot
but we liked to play R.A.F and Police,
I never wanted to be a cop, ‘cause cops are just shit.
I preferred to be a terrorist and bombed everything away
and (so) I carved a R.A.F - star into my school desk,
The principal-pig nearly exploded from anger.
Refrain:
Red army fraction you used to be a wicked/cool bunch
-“- , there was something going on/up with you
-“- I always thought you were amazing
Sadly I was too young,
To join you already
But my heart has always been beating
for the red army fraction
/end
The R.A.F only/always failed
To explain what they were dreaming about
The (political) theory was intellectual and complicated,
The little guy they were fighting for
Didn’t quiet get that.
So the state could easily isolate them as an enemy of the people/state
The bigwigs/fat cat shat themselves if you only said RAF
They were a nightmare that haunted (them) every night
/Ref. get´s repeated until the end of the song
Love songs for terrorist groups 🥰
