Unusual Song Lyrics

[summerisle]

For transfer deadline day, a song from Weimar Germany : Wir Schnupfen und Wir Spritzen (We take drugs and we inject.) By Fritz von Istini.

Once not so very long ago
Sweet alcohol, that beast,
Brought warmth and sweetness to our lives,
But then the price increased.
And so cocaine and morphine
Berliners now accept.
Let lightening flashes rage outside
We snort and we inject.

At dinner in the restaurant
The waiter brings the tin
Of coke for us to feast on -
Forget whiskey and gin !
Let drowsy morphine takes it
Subcutaneous effect
Upon our nervous system -
We snort and we inject !

These medications are not allowed,
Of course, they're quite forbidden.
But even such illicit treats
Are very seldom hidden.
Euphoria awaits us
And though, we suspect,
Our foes can't wait to shoot us down,
We snort and we inject !

And if we snort ourselves to death
Or into the asylum,
Our days are going downhill fast -
How better to beguile 'em ?
Europe's a madhouse anyway,
No need for genuflecting ;
The only way to Paradise
Is snorting and injecting.

Happy transfer day.

"I am the ****ing model of a ****ing major general....."

I quite often compose and loudly sing obscene lyrics to popular tunes as I stride along by the busy A8 out of Edinburgh.

Recently a jogger crept up behind. Yup, she was young and pretty. Nope, she wasn't wearing earphones. She must have heard it all.

I don't really care. For I am out of the game.

Ich lieg' gern im Gras und schau' zum Himmel rauf,
Schaun die ganzen Wolken nicht lustig aus
Und fliegt 'n Flieger vorbei, dann wink' ich zu ihm rauf
Und bist du auch noch dabei, dann bin ich super drauf
Und ich flieg, flieg, flieg wie ein Flieger,
Bin so stark, stark, stark wie ein Tiger,
Und so groß, groß, groß wie 'ne Giraffe, so hoch
Und ich spring, spring, spring immer wieder,
Und ich schwimm, schwimm, schwimm zu dir rüber,
Und ich nimm, nimm, nimm dich bei der Hand
Weil ich dich mag, und ich sag
Heut ist so ein schöner Tag
Heut ist so ein schöner Tag
Heut ist so ein schöner Tag
Heut ist so ein schöner Tag
Und ich flieg, flieg, flieg wie ein Flieger,
Bin so stark, stark, stark wie ein Tiger,
Und so groß, groß, groß wie 'ne Giraffe, so hoch
Und ich spring, spring, spring immer wieder,
Und ich schwimm, schwimm, schwimm zu dir rüber,
Und ich nimm, nimm, nimm dich bei der Hand
Weil ich dich mag, und ich sag
Heut ist so ein schöner Tag
Heut ist so ein schöner Tag
Heut ist so ein schöner Tag
Heut ist so ein schöner Tag
Und ich flieg, flieg, flieg wie ein Flieger,
Bin so stark, stark, stark wie ein Tiger,
Und so groß, groß, groß wie 'ne Giraffe, so hoch
Und ich spring, spring, spring immer wieder,
Und ich schwimm, schwimm, schwimm zu dir rüber,
Und ich nimm, nimm, nimm dich bei der Hand
Weil ich dich mag, und ich sag
Heut ist so ein schöner Tag
Heut ist so ein schöner Tag
Heut ist so ein schöner Tag
Heut ist so ein schöner Tag
Und ich flieg, flieg, flieg wie ein Flieger,
Bin so stark, stark, stark wie ein Tiger,
Und so groß, groß, groß wie 'ne Giraffe, so hoch
Und ich spring, spring, spring immer wieder,
Und ich schwimm, schwimm, schwimm zu dir rüber,
Und ich nimm, nimm, nimm dich bei der Hand
Weil ich dich mag, und ich sag
Heut ist so ein schöner Tag
Heut ist so ein schöner Tag
Heut ist so ein schöner Tag
Heut ist so ein schöner Tag
Heut ist so ein schöner Tag

Spoiler: Translation:

I like lying in the grass and looking up to the sky,
Do not look the whole clouds funny
And fly a flyer, then I wink up at him
And if you are still there, I am super
And I fly, fly, fly like an airman,
I am as strong, strong, strong as a tiger,
And as tall, tall, tall as a giraffe, so high
And I spring, spring, spring again and again,
And I swim, swim, swim over to you,
And I take, take, take your hand
Because I like you, and I say
today is such a beautiful day
today is such a beautiful day
today is such a beautiful day
today is such a beautiful day
And I fly, fly, fly like an airman,
I am as strong, strong, strong as a tiger,
And as tall, tall, tall as a giraffe, so high
And I spring, spring, spring again and again,
And I swim, swim, swim over to you,
And I take, take, take your hand
Because I like you, and I say
today is such a beautiful day
today is such a beautiful day
today is such a beautiful day
today is such a beautiful day
And I fly, fly, fly like an airman,
I am as strong, strong, strong as a tiger,
And as tall, tall, tall as a giraffe, so high
And I spring, spring, spring again and again,
And I swim, swim, swim over to you,
And I take, take, take your hand
Because I like you, and I say
today is such a beautiful day
today is such a beautiful day
today is such a beautiful day
today is such a beautiful day
And I fly, fly, fly like an airman,
I am as strong, strong, strong as a tiger,
And as tall, tall, tall as a giraffe, so high
And I spring, spring, spring again and again,
And I swim, swim, swim over to you,
And I take, take, take your hand
Because I like you, and I say
today is such a beautiful day
today is such a beautiful day
today is such a beautiful day
today is such a beautiful day
today is such a beautiful day

Shoe shopping time, and there's a need to be afraid,
Without the right shoe, his foot pain will escalate.
And in a world of Nike, and Vans and Reebok too,
Won't you help Ashtonian choose the right kind of shoe.

And say a prayer - pray for him when he runs,
to B&Q, for toilet parts as his seat has gone.
There's a world of brands to choose from,
and he needs the right pair.
But the only ones he sees now,
are Hi-Tec and Fila.
And it's only bells that wear those,
The designs are just too dull.
So tonight let's get him Nike,
or he's a wool.

And there won't be Gola in Ash's house this Christmas time.
The greatest gift he'll get this year is shoes.
Three stripes or a tick,
Anything else would just be sick,
Let's get Ashtonian some decent shoes.

Here's to him, without plantar fasciitis,
No longer will people take the piss,
Let's just get Ash a decent pair right now.

Get him shoes, let him walk this Christmas time.
Get him shoes, let him walk this Christmas time.
Get him shoes, let him walk this Christmas time.
Get him shoes, let him walk this Christmas time right now.

How much is that doggie in the window?
The one with the waggly tail
How much is that doggie in the window?
I do hope that doggie's for sale

I must take a trip to California
And leave my poor sweetheart alone
If he has a dog, he won't be lonesome
And the doggie will have a good home

How much is that doggie in the window?
The one with the waggly tail
How much is that doggie in the window?
I do hope that doggie's for sale

I read in the papers there are robbers
With flashlights that shine in the dark
My love needs a doggie to protect him
And scare them away with one bark

I don't want a bunny or a kitty
I don't want a parrot that talks
I don't want a bowl of little fishies
He can't take a goldfish for a walk

How much is that doggie in the window?
The one with the waggly tail
How much is that doggie in the window?
I do hope that doggie's for sale

I want a cup of tea, I want a cup of tea, I want a cup of tea.

But first I need a wee.

 

[Armel]

Art lover_ The Kinks

Sunday afternoon there's something special
It's just like another world
Jogging in the park is my excuse
To look at all the little girls

I'm not a flasher in a rain coat,
I'm not a dirty old man,
I'm not gonna snatch you from your mother,
I'm an art lover
Come to daddy,
Ah, come to daddy,
Come to daddy

Pretty little legs, I want to draw them,
Like a Degas ballerina
Pure white skin, like porcelain,
She's a work of art and I should know
I'm an art lover
Come to daddy,
And I'll give you some spangles

Little girl don't notice me
Watching as she innocently plays
She can't see me staring at her
Because I'm always wearing shades
She feeds the ducks, looks at the flowers
I follow her around for hours and hours
I'd take her home, but that could never be,
She's just a substitute
For what's been taken from me
Ah, come to daddy, come on

Sunday afternoon can't last forever,
Wish I could take you home
So, come on, give us a smile
Before you vanish out of view
I've learned to appreciate you
The way art lovers do,
And I only want to look at you


Always found this song to be quite odd, disturbing.

I want a cup of tea, I want a cup of tea, I want a cup of tea.

But first I need a wee.

That’s what I say most every night when I get home from work. Didn’t realise that some plagiarist had stolen my words for a song.
