an den Lippen hängen
hang on every word
an den Mann bringen
dispose
in den roten Zahlen
in the red
in der Schwebe hängen
up in the air
in den Rücken fallen
stab somebody in the back
aus den Rippen leiern
wheedle
mit den bloßen Händen
with one's bare hands
an den Fersen bleiben
dog
an den Kräften zehren
debilitate
an den Tag legen
evince
in den Sinn kommen
occur
aus den Fugen bringen
shake up
einen sitzen haben
be well-oiled
have had a drop too much
have had one too many
keinen Plan haben
have no idea
in den Haaren
at loggerheads
in den Krieg ziehen
go to war
von der Leine lassen
unleash
in der Pipeline
in the pipeline
in der Tinte sitzen
be in a tight corner
be in a tight spot
be in deep water
be in in hot water
be stuck between a rock and a hard place
be up the pole
in die Binsen gehen
go down the drain
go down the pan
