Текст и перевод песни Kurt Ostbahn - Catapilla

Catapilla

Do woan de Wägn von de Zigeina
De totn Gleis, des wüüde Wossa
Und do woa i ned zum Klaakriagn
Ois klaana Bua
Glei vuam Haus, do woa da Urwoid
Daunn san de Catapilla kumma
Es woa an an Montog
In da Frua

I bin ausse ausn Bett
Bin ausse aus da Tia
I hob ned pockt
Wos i do sieach
De Catapilla ham ois niedagmocht
Ois wos zöht hod fia mi
Hob no ned gwusst
Dass an des öfta gschiacht

Im Urwoid wochsn heite Häusa
Wea domois kauft hod, is heit Kaisa
Dem Wossa hams es Wüüde obagramt
Des rinnt unta da Erd, wos niemand steat
Mi hams valegt in an Urwoid
Wo nua wea ned auffoit urndlich durchhoit
Es woan ned vü de gsogt ham
Oba ned mit mia
I hob boid gwusst do bin i foisch
Hob meine Zeignis gnumma und vabrennt
Ka Hirn, hams gsogt, ka Funkn Vastaund
Oba i renn liaba geng vasperrte Tian
Ois i steh do mitn Ruckn an da Waund
Mia woan fria Freind
Und wia san's heit beinaund

Se ham a poa offane Tian eigrennt
Und si rosch ins Aufgebn eigwöhnt
Haum nix mea wirklich woin
Fia wos si des Suachn lohnt
Jetzt hams Schuidn und de Firma
In fufzehn Joa fressens de Wiama
Und kurz vurm Schlagl gspia ma
Des is gwesn, des woa ois
Mia woa kloa, des pockst ka Joa
Des is ned dei Revier
Ned fia vü Göd auf da Wöd

Vua ana Ewichkeit
I waaß ois wars heit
Hams wos im Radio dazöht
Es woa de Gschicht von ana aundan neichn Wöd
Von an Land mit tausnd Liada
Duat san olle Schwestan und Briada
Do wochst de Liebe bis in Himme
Olle san Schefs oda a Star
Heit pfeift da Eiswind um de Eckn
Des letzte Wuat ham de größtn Deppn
Und im Hotel Zum müden Wanderer
Hängan de Freind von fria in da Fettn an da Bar
Oba i kehr do net ei
I hob wos Bessas vua
Weu des kost nua Zeit und i hob's no weit
Erscht waunn da letzte Catapilla tot am Buckl liegt
Wia a tota Sauria in da Sunn
Daunn waaß i es woa de Wegzeit wert
Und es woa ned umasunst

Catapilla

Where are the wagons of the gypsies
The dead tracks, the wild water
And there I was not to be fooled around
As a little boy
Right in front of the house, there was the primeval forest
Then the caterpillar came
It was on a Monday
In the morning

I got out of bed
I got out of the door
I didn't pack
What I see here
The caterpillars have destroyed everything
Everything that mattered to me
I didn't know yet
That this happens more often

In the primeval forest houses grow today
Who bought back then, is today Emperor
They have robbed the water of its wildness
It flows underground, where nobody touches it
They have moved me into a primeval forest
Where only those who are inconspicuous and endure survive
There were not many who said so
But not with me
I soon knew that I was wrong here
I took my certificates and burned them
No brains, they said, no spark of reason
But I'd rather run against locked doors
Than stand there with my back against the wall
We were friends once
And what are we like today

They have broken down a few open doors
And quickly got used to giving up
No longer really want anything
For what is it worth to search for it
Now they have debts and the company
In fifteen years the worms will eat them
And just before the stroke we feel
That's what it was, that was everything
We were small, you can't do that for a year
This is not your territory
Not for a lot of money in the world

An eternity ago
I know as if it were today
They told something on the radio
It was the story of another new world
Of a land with a thousand songs
There everyone is a sister and brother
Where love grows to Heaven
Everyone is a sheep or a star
Today the icy wind whistles around the corners
The biggest idiots have the last word
And in the Hotel Zum müden Wanderer
The friends of the past hang at the bar in their suits
But I'm not going in there
I have something better to do
Because that only takes time and I still have a long way to go
Only when the last caterpillar lies dead on its belly
Like a dead dinosaur in the sun
Then I know it was worth the journey
And it wasn't for nothing
