I'm not certain about what the slang meaning of the Augen auf phrase; I haven't spoken German on a daily basis in more than thirty years. The literal meaning would be "Eyes focused," but that's unlikely.

The lyric is "Augen auf, ich komme," so the translation would be "Eyes open, I'm coming."

Thanks. I have expressive aphasia, which worsens every day. You can imagine what that does to languages other than English.
