Mein Fahrrad [English translation]

Recently I've been doing 120

riding about on my bike

& as always could only hope

the police don't pull me over

Because then I would have to pay a fine

& be led to the interrogation

& my poor little bike

would stand alone in front of the door

Oh how I love my bike

Why - that I don't exactly know

I will be faithful to my bike

In contrast to my wife

I will never leave it

I will never go from it

Because we fly as if on clouds

Since we understand each other so well

Every bogey drives an Opel

Every monkey drives a Ford

Every buffoon drives a Porsche

Every a**e an Audi Sport

Every nutter drives a Manta

Every fool a Jaguar

Only connoisseurs ride a bike

& always get there more quickly

my bike is not purple

because that doesn't turn me on at all

it's also not brown

because I can't stand brown

No - I've had it painted blue

from the saddle to the innertube

& I think that says it appropriately

as I'm also sometimes blue
