She's a model ... Explanation: I can do better than that ... I can do all three verses! This is the standard translation released in the English version of the song (by Kraftwerk!) She's a model and she's looking good I'd like to take her home that's understood She plays hard to get, she smiles from time to time It only takes a camera to change her mind She's going out tonight but drinking just champagne And she has been checking nearly all the men She's playing her game and you can hear them say She is looking good, for beauty we will pay She's posing for consumer products now and then For every camera she gives the best she can I saw her on the cover of a magazine Now she's a big success, I want to meet her again Which can be found at: http://www.letssingit.com/lyrics/k/kraftwerk/12.html A more literal translation: She's a model and she looks good. I'd like to take her home with me tonight. She looks so cool - noone comes close. But in front of the camera, she shows what she can. Hope this helps. Mary a misspent youth |
