The City

You are Cologne
Lyrics: Thomas R. Engel & Helmut Seliger
Music: Jürgen Fritz
You are the Lord Mayor
You are the KVB
You are the Prince, Peasant and Virgin
You are FC
You are Tünnes, Schäl and Meissner
The Heinzelmännche Fountain
Bläck Fööss, Brings and Höhner
And the Lord's doing well
You are Ihrefeld, Nehl and Neppes
You are Sinnersdorf and Esch
You are Kalk and Bergheim
You have Gluck and Pesch
You are Cologne
Whether you like it or not
You are Cologne
Because otherwise there is no Cologne
You are Cologne
You are super tolerant
You take everyone on your arm
And by the hand
You are Carnival
You are also incidental
Black pudding, Kölsch and liver sausage
And Zimmerman the egg
You are the Neven and DuMont
You are Oppenheim and Co.
You are not a world cultural city
You are not afraid of anything
You are the Vringsstroß
Also the north-south line
You are the freedom in a fool
You are all that
You are Cologne
Whether you like it or not
You are Cologne
Because otherwise there is no Cologne
You are Cologne
You are super tolerant
You take everyone on your arm
And by the hand
You are Cologne
Whether you like it or not
You are Cologne
Because there is only real Cologne in Cologne
You are Cologne
You are super tolerant
You take everyone on your arm
And by the hand
You are the biggest village
And the coolest ass in the world
You are laughing and crying
And you ordered the music
If all of that is not enough for you
Then you are also the Rhine,
The cathedral, the zoo, the train station toilet,
Sunshine in your heart
Half a rooster, a whole calf
Nightcap and rogue
You are Cologne all alone
You are all of Cologne
You are Cologne
Whether you like it or not
You are Cologne
Because otherwise there is no Cologne
You are Cologne
You are super tolerant
You take everyone on your arm
And by the hand
