Baciller [English translation]

Listen up for a moment, I am telling you

There are many kinds of germs

They are transmitted through intimate touch

but also through other transfer

There is a kind that causes itching

in one ear, or both,

depending on how you are sitting

when bureaucrats are talking

Then there are those that affect your vision

if you lower your eyebrows too much

and hit them lightly into the table

and only have eyes for the written word

When you are wrong and the arguments run short,

you run around and roar

Then you have gotten a bout of the fever

that is of help to every careerist

There are germs that confuse your legs

The second does not know of the first

The one that for the moment is the best

is shit and nothing in the next

Then there are those that do no harm,

but only lunatics and fools get those

They are handed out for free to those who fight

and do not thrive in madhouses and jails

Yes really, I am telling you

There are many kinds of germs

They are transmitted through intimate touch

but also through other transfer

What ordinary simple people need,

that is covered up by bureaucrat germs

Reason does not always help either

against their powerful charts

You dig out stories from the gravel

underneath the parliament building

But they above who rest on reason

make a garage for nice cars

From fear of losing your voice

every third year at autumn,

there is a germ that can cause trouble

You have to promise more than you can keep

Sure, you have an ear for what the people wish for,

especially when the economy is flourishing

To listen only means to hear

Then you can do what you meant to do

Yes really, I am telling you

There are many kinds of germs

And the sensible and hindsight-clever

even make cacti wilt

The people who split off atoms

The phantoms of technology

The threats they once found wrong and overstated

now make them run for life

As I now really wished your best,

I promise that if there is any pill

that is an effective agent against germs,

I will call and tell you
