Schaffnerlos - Live

Schaffner und Schaffner is Zwarerlei
Ma konn nur a Schaffner
Oder auch ein Herr Schaffner sein
Man konn Stationen ausrufen
Foahrscheine verkaufen
Und sonst nur barriern
Ma konn da Knecht sein von die Foahrgäst
Oder den Wagon regiern

Schaffner sei
Des woar amoi wos!
Die Zeit is vorbei
Heit foahr ma schaffnalos
Schaffner sei
Des woar amoi wos!
Die Zeit is vorbei
Heit foahr ma schaffnalos

Die Schaffner sterbn aus, überoi
Der Mensch wird ersetzt, durch a Kastl aus Metoi
Wenn ma do an Foahrschein eine steckt
Sogt kana: "Danke" oder: "Bitte vorgehn"
Die sogn überhaupt nix, de riahrn si ned amoi
Wenn die Leit auf der hinteren Plattfoarm stehn

Schaffner sei
Des woar amoi wos!
Die Zeit is vorbei
Heit foahr ma schaffnalos
Schaffner sei
Des woar amoi wos!
So wird's nie wieda
Des is des Schaffnerlos

Wenn ma heit zu an sogt: "Herst steigns aus!"
Dann sogt der hechstns: "Geh Gusch!"
Und der ganze Wagon klotscht Applaus
Hot ana a Schaffneruniform, hot ma früha fost salutiert
Heit wird ma nur verächtlich ogschaut, dass ma si direkt geniert

Schaffner sei
Des woar amoi wos!
So wird's nie wieda
Des is des Schaffnerlos
Schaffner sei
Des woar amoi wos!
So wird's nie wieda sei
Des is des Schaffnerlos

Conductorless - Live

Conductors and conductors are two different things
You can only be a conductor
Or also a Mr. Conductor
You can call stations
Sell tickets
And otherwise just put up barriers
You can be the servant of the passengers
Or rule the wagon

To be a conductor
That was something once!
That time is over
Today we drive without conductors
To be a conductor
That was something once!
That time is over
Today we drive without conductors

Conductors are dying out everywhere
Man is being replaced by a metal box
When I put a ticket in there
Nobody says: "Thank you" or: "Please go ahead"
They don't say anything at all, they don't even move
When people are standing on the rear platform

To be a conductor
That was something once!
That time is over
Today we drive without conductors
To be a conductor
That was something once!
It will never come back
This is the conductor's fate

If you say to someone today: "Get off now!"
The most they'll say is: "Go away!"
And the whole wagon claps applause
If someone was wearing a conductor's uniform, you used to almost salute
Today you just get looked at contemptuously, so that you feel directly embarrassed

To be a conductor
That was something once!
It will never come back
This is the conductor's fate
To be a conductor
That was something once!
It will never be again
This is the conductor's fate
