Was schaut der Typ Kaiser's Tenglmann 00:00
Mich so rotzfrech durch die Menge an? 00:05
Warum räumt der nicht ganz normal 00:09
Sein' scheiß Spinat in das Regal? 00:13
Der hatte gestern sicher Brot verkauft 00:18
Und seine Handynummer obendrauf 00:22
Und hat gesagt: "Die geht aufs Haus Madame" 00:26
Was fängst du bloß mit solchen Typen an? 00:30

[English]
Why is that guy from Kaiser's Tengelmann
Looking at me so brazenly through the crowd?
Why doesn't he just normally
Put his damn spinach on the shelf?
Yesterday he definitely sold bread
And his phone number on top of that
And said: "It's on the house, Madame"
What are you even supposed to do with guys like that?
...
I'm the delivery random guy
For the sick animal inside me
That I can only feed
Because I butter its bread
Everything grows when you water it
Let me know when you see her
The most handsome man in all of local transport
Even if it really was pure coincidence
Doesn't just drive up at four in the morning
Exactly to your door
I know there is the option
That other people live here
But if you're honest with yourself
It's not realistic
...
I'm the delivery random guy
For the sick animal inside me
That I can only feed
Because I butter its bread
Everything grows when you water it
Let me know when you see her
It breathes, it waits, it listens to me
I want it to die, but it never rests
No stale piece of toast and no old shoe
I'll bring it the best tiramisu
It breathes, it waits, it never rests
I'll bring it the best tiramisu
I'm the delivery random guy
For the sick animal inside me
That I can only feed
Because I butter its bread
Everything grows when you water it
Let me know when you see her
...
