Cool Song Lyrics
OK, I’m finally breaking down and joining the other bloggers who post song lyrics they think are really cool but probably mean jack spit to 99% of their readers. This one is from one of my favorite rockers, Marius Müller-Westernhagen:
Ich bin der schwärzeste Neger,
ich bin der jüdischste Jud.
ich bin der deutscheste Deutsche
ich hab’ das roteste Blut.Schweigen ist feige Reden ist Gold.
Schweigen ist feige Reden ist Gold.Ich hab’ die weißeste Weste,
ich hab’ den größten Schwanz,
ich fress’ von Allem die Reste,
ich bin dein Rosenkranz.Schweigen ist feige Reden ist Gold.
Schweigen ist feige Reden ist Gold.Mir ist so kalt,
mir ist so kalt.
Mir ist so kalt,
so schrecklich kalt.Wenn der Himmel
sich öffnet,
an jenem jüngsten Tag.
Wird die Liebe sich rächen,
an dem was wichtig war.Schweigen ist feige Reden ist Gold.
Schweigen ist feige Reden ist Gold.

Interesting lyrics. Which LP are they from? Can one listen to his stuff online for free?

They’re from Affentheater. Not sure if there’s any way to hear the songs online for free.

Some people have an … interesting … definition of “interesting.”

I dunno, I think it would take a pretty interesting definition of interesting for anyone who can read German not to find those lyrics interesting. Unless, of course, everyone talks like that in Oregon.

Well, all right, fair point. I would’ve used a stronger word than “interesting” so I found it, um, interesting, that that was the one chosen.
I could read it (mostly) up to the Wenn der Himmel verse. Outside the first line of that I’m clueless.

OK, I’m relieved now. For a second there, I thought you considered these lyrics boring.

Damn, there goes meine mystique.

Thanks for the info. Your link goes to Amazon.de where the price is about $15, but they won’t send it here. On our Amazon the price is $37. Guess I’ll ask my Frau to pick it up on her next visit to Vienna.

Sorry, dude, I thought you were in Europe. If you’re in the States, or anywhere else for that matter, you can always try GEMM instead.

I was in Switzerland until last June. Now I’m in the Cleveland suburbs.
Your pity is appreciated. As is the new link, I’ll order from GEMM.
