König von Deutschland deutsche Übersetzung
von Echt

King of Germany

Every night at half past midnight
When the TV is hissing
I lay in my bed imaging
What if I were not that one that I am
But Chancellor, Imperator, King or Queen
I think, what Kohl (NB: our former chancellor who was 16 years in office) can do, I can, too
I would listen to Vivaldi every day
I would travel a lot, would go to the USA and
Bite Ronnie (Regan) as Waldi (famous German name for dogs) into his calves…

Refrain:
All that and a lot more
I would do
If I were the King of Germany!
Oh…, all that and a lot more
I would do
If I were the King of Germany


I would change the crown every day
I would bath twice (a day)
I would announce the Lotterydata one week ahead
At army they would only listen to hit parades (charts)
I would have Birthday everyday of the year!
At TV there would be only one programme
Robert Lembke (famous German presenter) 24hours
I would have 200 castles
And were never flat broken
I would be Rio I. and Sissi II.

Refrain

The socks and the cars could not stink any more!
Every morning I would drink a glass of Champagne!
I would be more chick than Schmidt (German chancellor before Kohl, cigar smoker and posh left-winged) and bigger than Strauss (Franz-Josef Strauss - famous Bavarian President and Federal Minister of Finances – a bit fat)
My music LPs would be the most famous
Reinhard Mey (Country song musician) would be the royal songwriter, Paola und Kurt Felix (German TV humoristic presenters) would be the Swiss guards
Before I would like to know if they have a sence of humour, they would need to watch 48hours their own show (which is not that funny)

Refrain
