Erfurt and Gera
Honored mourners!
We find ourselves together today
to mourn the passing of our beloved
Christian Kiesling from Erfurt.
We gave the deceased our last escort
and give to the Heavenly Father
the care of his soul!
There's a gravestone on the autobahn
between Erfurt and Gera
here died a poor critter
in an automobile accident, that was
pretty hard, devastating!
Oh Christian
died on the Autobahn
it was just a few weeks ago when he took off
from the East for the West
The escape attempt was classic
It was his first trip back
and immediately he broke his neck
>From Wessi-Land to East-Berlin
between Erfurt and Gera
This destiny is a lesson to all.
Born in Erfurt, lost in Erfurt
He left with a group of seven
And all from Erfurt, in Erfurt different
Nothing's left for me but loving memories
He was a braggart, a blowhard, a classic case
Spend, spend, spend and live like a playboy
Snuffed out in Erfurt
Quiet!
Or esle I'll call the peoples-police.
Now, there's a gravestone on the Autobahn,
between Erfurt and Gera.
So that it doesn't happen to anyone else,
I'm taking over, as a converter.
And when you trade your Trabbies for BMW's
you better listen to that little inner voice
you Easteners are racing to the West
to test your new wheels.
Now brakes on, hard, we're not napping here
The Death-shroud industry is up and running,
and everything is so colorful here
the jaws of death open so quickly here
Oh Christian
died on the Autobahn
The "Bild am Sonntag" covered it fully
Don't be led astray, you're part of the intelligent ones
Show me your identity card!!
No, but I can give you a banana!
