Et Kackleed [English translation]

Let's sing a little song about shitting

shitting is a real nice thing

shitting is a big affliction

cause if you can't shit any more

you're dead.

Also the nuns have to shit

Peasants shit into a ton

the farm labourers and the maidservants

shit in the stable.

Children are like turkeys,

they shit everywhere.

On a boat peole shits into the water

On an excursion you shit on the meadow

anybody who lives here in our little town

shits into the drain

and whoever is in a real hurry

shits right here in the hall.

Anybody who eats a lot also has to shit a lot

anybody who doesn't watch out shits onto his heels

anybody who likes to eat big onions

shits with an awful smell

and whoever has the squits

shits along his legs.

This way we could go on singing about shitting

cause it is a real nice thing

thats why we all advise you

to shit soft and round

anybody who can always shit well

stays healty
