Seven Dolls

KLEINES WEHNACHTSGEDICHT
When the last Kalendersheets
Flattern through the winterstreets
And Dezemberwind is blowing
Than is everybody knowing
That it is not allzuweit
She does come the Weihnachtszeit
All the Menschen, Leute, people
Flippen out of ihr warm Stüble
Run to Kaufhof, Aldi, Mess
Make Konsum and business
Kaufen this and jene things
And thechurchturmglocke rings
Manche holen sich a Tännchen
When this brennt they cry “attention”
Rufen for the Feuerwehr
“Please come quick zum löschen her
Goes the Tännchen off in Rauch
They are standing on the Schlauch
In the kitchen of the house
Mother makes the Christmasdschmaus
She is working, schufts and bakes
The hit is now her Jogurtkeks
And the Opa says as tester
“We are killed bis to Sylvester”
Then he fills the last Glas wine-
Yes this is the Christmastime.
Day by day was so vegang
And the holy night does come
You can think, you can remember
This is immer in Dezember
Then the childrenlein are coming
Candle-Wachs is abwärts running
Bing of Crosby Chrismas sings
While the towerglocke rings
And the angel look so fine
Well this is the Weihnachtstime.
Baby-eyes are kugelrund
The family feel kerngesund
When unterm Weihnachtsbaum tey’re hocking
Then nothing can them ever shocking
They are happy, are so fine
This happens in the Christmastime
The animals all in the house
The Hund, the Katz, the bird, the Maus
Are turning round the Weihnachtstree
Enjoy the day as never nie
Weil the find a lot of Schappi
In the Geschenkkarton from Papi,
The family begins to sing
And wieder does a Glöckchen ring
Zum song vom grünen Tannenbaum
Die Tränen rennen down und down
Till the mother lustvoll schreit
„The Gans im Ofen ist so weit“
Well this all belongs dazu,
Bis it really comes
