Paroles et traduction Höhner - Echte Kölsche Band

Echte Kölsche Band

Minge Vatter hätt 'ne Doktor-Titel – es e ne staatse Mann.
Ming Mamm mäht schwer op Charitity zig däm ich denke kann!
Die Zwei, die sin e Musterpäärche – immer akkurat.
E Hüsje en Marienburg – längs ad affjezahlt!
Ming Zokunft wor jenau jeplant – bezahlt von Pap un Mamm.
Privatschull, Jolf- un Tennis-Club – ich kunnt alles han.
Et sullt jet us mir weede – System immanent.
Doch ich hatt mich längst entschiede – för en echte kölsche Band.

Zur Schull moot ich en Polo-Shirts, de Hoor jestylt met Gel,
Et wor alles reichlich elitär – wie't Pap un Mamm jefeel.
Et jov janz strenge Regele, wie domols Anno Pief.
Un och ens op de Backe links un rähts, wenn einer schlief.
Ich sullt jo op de Uni jon – doch ich ben durchjebrannt.
Nix en dr Täsch, doch dofür frei, ich wor total jespannt.
Ich wullt mi eije Levve – su wie't dr Papp nit kennt.
Ich hatt mich längst entschiede – för en echte kölsche Band.

Dann soße se, han spekuliert, wat wohl us mir ens weed:
Ne Anwalt oder Richter oder glich ne Doktor med.,
Doch ich wullt keine Titel un keine neueste Trend!
Ich hatt mich längst entschiede – för en echte kölsche Band.

Minge Vatter jov mir Jeld suvill ich wullt – ich jov et us
För e Mädche us dr Upper Class – nä nä, wor ich bestuss'.
Oh Jott – wat han mer zwei jezaubert un jehex' baal jede Naach.
Doch dann sproch se vom Hierode un plötzlich woodt ich waach!
Se wullt e eije Hüsje han un zwar in Düsseldorf.
Zwei Pänz, ne Hungk, ne Daimler-Benz – ich kräht se nit die Kurv,
Se hätt et nie begriffe, dat Füür dat en mir brennt,
Dröm han ich mich entschiede – för en echte kölsche Band!

Jo! En echte kölsche Band!
Dabba dab dab dab deep deep en echte kölsche Band!

Echte Kölsche Band

My father has a doctor's degree - he's a really important man.
My mother has always been involved in charity work for as long as I can remember.
They are a model couple - always so proper.
They have a house in Marienburg - they paid it off a while ago.
My future was already planned out - it was all paid for by my parents.
I went to private school, I played golf and tennis - I could have anything I wanted.
I was supposed to become something great - a pillar of the community.
But I made up my mind a long time ago - I want to be in a real Kölsch band.

I had to wear polo shirts to school, I had to gel my hair,
It was all very elite - just like my parents wanted.
There were very strict rules, like back in the old days.
And there were always slaps on the face, on the left and right, if you fell asleep.
I was supposed to go to university - but I ran away.
I didn't have anything with me, but I was free, I was so excited.
I wanted to live my own life - like my father never did.
I made up my mind a long time ago - I want to be in a real Kölsch band.

Then they sat down and started thinking about what I would become:
A lawyer, a judge, or a doctor.
But I didn't want any titles or the latest trends.
I made up my mind a long time ago - I want to be in a real Kölsch band.

My father gave me as much money as I wanted - I gave it away
For a girl from the upper class - no, no, I'm better than that.
Oh God - how we kissed and made love almost every night.
But then she started talking about marriage and suddenly I woke up.
She wanted to have her own house in Düsseldorf.
Two kids, a dog, a Mercedes-Benz - I don't care about these things,
She never understood the fire that burns inside me,
That's why I made up my mind - I want to be in a real Kölsch band.

Yeah! A real Kölsch band!
Dabba dab dab dab deep deep a real Kölsch band!
