Dat Wasser Vun Kölle (Live im Millowitsch Theater 1985)

Als unse Vatter do bovven de Welt jemaat
Do hät hä et schönste Fleckche Ääd he an d'r Rhing jelat
Dann nohm hä die Kölsche an de Hand un sat
Dat es jetz üch - et jelobte Land
He künnt ihr klüngele, bütze, singe un fiere
Ävver halt' mer all die Sache
Öm Joddeswelle en Ihre
Un maat och nit nur ei Deil dovun kapott
Denn ihr weißt, ich sin alles
Un dann nemm ich et üch widder fott
Oh, leever Jott, jev uns Wasser
Denn janz Kölle hät Doosch
Oh, leever Jott, jev uns Wasser
Un helf uns en d'r Nut
Ming Blome lossen alles hänge, wä hilf en d'r Nut?
D'r Wellensittich es wie jeck am schänge, dä Jung hät secher Woot
Uns Joldfesch han de Auge deck un sagen keine Ton
De Wäschmaschin spillt total verröck, woröm hät d'r Minsch Calgon?
Ming Filme entwickel ich ovends en Rhing
Dat jeit janz jot, denn do es alles dren
Och wemmer av un zo d'r Dönnscheß han, mer gläuve wigger dran
Dat Wasser vun Kölle es jot...
Oh, leever Jott, jev uns Wasser
Denn janz Kölle hät Doosch
Oh, leever Jott, jev uns Wasser
Un helf uns en d'r Nut
Nierestein sin schwer am kumme, oh Herr, wat deit dat wih
Och d'r Hoorusfall hät zojenomme, do hilf kei Böschte mih
Alle Wasserrühre sin total verstopp, die dröppen vür sich hin
Om Kaffee schwemmp 'ne fiese Ölfilm drop, wie kütt dat Öl do ren?
Uns Feuerwehr, die es bestemmp nit schläch,
Doch wenn se lösch, Jung, dann brennt et eets räch
Oh, Herr, dun e Wunder, üvverläch et dir
Söns stommer morje vür dinger Dür
Dat Wasser vun Kölle es jot...
Oh, leever Jott, jev uns Wasser
Denn janz Kölle hät Doosch
Oh, leever Jott, jev uns Wasser
Un helf uns en d'r Nut
Dat Wasser vun Kölle es jot...

Water of Cologne (Live at the Millowitsch Theater, 1985)

When our Father created the world above
He left the most beautiful spot on Earth here on the Rhine
Then He took the people of Cologne by the hand and said
This is now yours - the promised land
Here you can chat, kiss, sing, and celebrate
But please keep all these things
For God's sake in their honor
And don't destroy even a part of them
Because you know, I am everything
And then I will take them away from you again
Oh dear God, give us water
Because all of Cologne is thirsty
Oh dear God, give us water
And help us in our need
My flowers are all drooping, who will help us in our need?
The budgie is going crazy, the boy is surely mad
Our goldfish have their eyes covered and don't say a word
The washing machine is playing completely crazy, why does man have Calgon?
I develop my films at night in the Rhine
That works very well, because everything is in it
Even if we have a dry spell every now and then, we still believe in it
The water of Cologne is good...
Oh dear God, give us water
Because all of Cologne is thirsty
Oh dear God, give us water
And help us in our need
Kidney stones are coming on strong, oh Lord, how it hurts
The rate of urinary tract infections has also increased, nothing helps there anymore
All the water taps are completely blocked, they are dripping away
A nasty oil film is floating on the coffee, how did the oil get there?
Our fire brigade is certainly not bad
But when they put out a fire, boy, then it really burns
Oh Lord, do a miracle, consider it
Otherwise, we will stand in front of your door tomorrow
The water of Cologne is good...
Oh dear God, give us water
Because all of Cologne is thirsty
Oh dear God, give us water
And help us in our need
The water of Cologne is good...
