Here's a real good one (in German!) to start the ball rolling. Some of you guys with geto blaster's in the back ought to turn up the sound driving though German Neighbourhoods playing this one! Garanteed to get more than 1 stare!!!!
"EIN LEICHENWAGEN VON MERCEDES BENZ"
(A Funeral Car from Mercedes Benz)
Translation: (Naturally doesn't ryme in English, but very funny german salsa in the Original Language)
-------------------------------------------------
My job is chaffeur!, but those that ride with me are no longer alive.
Yes that's my life! I'm a funeral driver
I roll silently through the night, Death is my freight (load)
Life goes so quickly, In my auto .. there is always a place free for you!
chorus: Ein Leichenwagen von Mercedes Benz (A funeral car from Mercedes Benz)
The route to the Cemetary ,... Yes I know the way!
For my passengers this is the end of the line (Last Stop)
It's never too cold for my passengers, no matter, no matter how low the themometer falls.
All of them are clothed in the best of fabrics.
I drive my passengers to the dance of death, from special invitation of the man with the sickle
All Dead people dance the bone ballet
Dance , Dance move you skeleton
........
....
PS: I tried to keep the sentence construct as much a possible in the original order....
Klaus Lage: Mercedes Benz
Singing Janice's song in German????? Can't imagine it to be as good as her cracking voice .... or should that be "as bad as her..." [:0]
