It depends on where you go. A large number of Germans in metropolitan areas (ie where foriegners normally visit) speak enough English to communicate with. I've been to Germany 3 times and only know enough of the language to order off a menu. Munich, Heidelberg, and Garmisch are 3 places that I did just fine not knowing how to speak German. You'll survive.
