Mer Losse D'r Dom In Kölle (Live im BonnBons 1975)

Stell d'r für, de Kreml stünd o'm Ebertplatz,
Stell d'r für, de Louvre stünd am Ring.
Do wör für die zwei doch vell ze winnich Platz,
Dat wör doch e unvorstellbar Ding.
Am Jürzenich, do wör vielleich et Pentajon,
Am Rothus stünd dann die Akropolis.
Do wöss mer över haup nit, wo mer hinjonn sullt,
Un daröm es dat eine janz jewess:

Mer losse d'r Dom en Kölle, denn do jehööt hä hin.
Wat sull di dann woanders, dat hätt doch keine Senn.
Mer losse d'r Dom in Kölle, denn do es hä ze huss.
Un op singem ahle Platz, bliev hä och joot en Schuss,
Un op singem ahle Platz, bliev hä och joot en Schuss.

Die Ihrestross, die hieß vielleich Sixth Avenue,
Oder die Nordsüd-Fahrt Brennerpass.
D'r Mont Klamott, dä heiss op eimol Zuckerhut,
Do köm dat Panorama schwer in Brass.
Jetzt froch ich üch, wem domet jeholfe es,
Wat nötz die janze Stadtsanierung schon?
Do sull doch leever alles blieve wie et es
Un mir behaale uns're schöne Dom.

Leave the Cathedral in Cologne (Live at BonnBons 1975)

Imagine the Kremlin standing on Ebertplatz,
Imagine the Louvre standing on the Ring.
There wouldn't be enough space for the two of them,
That would be an unimaginable thing.
The Jürzenich might be the Pentagon,
The Rothus might be the Acropolis.
You wouldn't know where to go at all,
And that's why it's quite clear:

Let's leave the Cathedral in Cologne, because that's where it belongs.
What would it do somewhere else, that makes no sense.
Let's leave the Cathedral in Cologne, because that's where it's at home.
And in its old place, it will remain for a long time,
And in its old place, it will remain for a long time.

The Hohe Straße might be called Sixth Avenue,
Or the Nordsüd-Fahrt Brenner Pass.
The Monte Klamotte might suddenly be called Sugarloaf Mountain,
That would really mess up the panorama.
Now I ask you who that would help,
What good would all the urban renewal do?
It's better to leave everything as it is
And we keep our beautiful cathedral.
