To be read quite quickly, like RAP.
For Brits: Imagine Ian Drury and 'Reasons to be cheerful'
The annex with the dossers
Rooms full of tossers!
Worse than the Army
But better than Tsunami
Atop of the Zugspitze
Views to afar
Great to be young
On top of the world, ma!
Learning 'Gute Reisen'
Tasting my first Weizen
Would my legs get frozen
In some Lederhosen?
Being shit-faced at the 'Chance'
In the 'Grill' to beg a dance
Sliding down the kramer
Who the hell's Osama?
At the Hausberg, working for Gordo
Working with Stringer, Oh my lord, no!
Summer in bike rental
Stringer drives me mental
Watching all the skiers
Trying to still my fears
Skiing on my tush
Feeling just like Bush
A Madel in her dirndl
Who I'd like to föndle
Trying the langlaufen
Then to go-a-saufen
In Munich is the 'Wies'n'
Drink without a reason
Drunk is the the whole world
Years before Rumsfeld
A good chug-a-lug
From a giant maß krug
Add an oompah band
Isn't life grand?
How we loved it all so much
Sad to see it's into touch
Oh! my God what have they done
How dare they spoil all our fun?
A time begotten of a war
A time that we shall see no more.
We knew it was too good to last
But still we cling to it, our past.
