"Mein Teil"

"Suche gut gebauten Achtzehn- bis Dreißigjährigen zum Schlachten"
Der Metzgermeister

Heute treff' ich einen Herrn
Der hat mich zum Fressen gern
Weiche Teile und auch harte
Stehen auf der Speisekarte

Denn du bist, was du isst
Und ihr wisst, was es ist

Es ist mein Teil – nein
Mein Teil – nein
Da-das ist mein Teil – nein
Mein Teil – nein

Die stumpfe Klinge gut und recht
Ich blute stark und mir ist schlecht
Muss ich auch mit der Ohnmacht kämpfen
Ich esse weiter unter Krämpfen

Ist doch so gut gewürzt
Und so schön flambiert
Und so liebevoll auf Porzellan serviert
Dazu ein guter Wein
Und zarter Kerzenschein
Ja, da lass' ich mir Zeit
Etwas Kultur muss sein

Denn du bist, was du isst
Und ihr wisst, was es ist

Es ist mein Teil – nein
Mein Teil – nein
Da-das ist mein Teil – nein
Yes, it's mein Teil – nein

Ein Schrei wird zum Himmel fahren
Schneidet sich durch Engelsscharen
Vom Wolkendach fällt Federfleisch
Auf meine Kindheit mit Gekreisch

Es ist mein Teil – nein
Mein Teil – nein
Da-das ist mein Teil – nein
Mein Teil – nein
Es ist mein Teil – nein
Mein Teil – nein
Denn das ist mein Teil – nein
Yes, it's mein Teil – nein

[English translation:]

"Looking for a well-built eighteen- to thirty-year-old to be slaughtered"
The Master Butcher

Today I will meet a gentleman
He likes me so much he could eat me up
Soft parts and even hard ones
Are on the menu

Because you are what you eat
And you know what it is

It is my part – no
My part – no
There that's my part – no
My part – no

The dull blade good and proper
I'm bleeding heavily and feeling sick
Although I have to fight to stay awake
I keep eating while in convulsions

It's just so well seasoned
And so nicely flambéed
And so lovingly served on porcelain
And with it, a good wine
And gentle candlelight
Yeah I'll take my time
You've got to have some culture

Because you are what you eat
And you know what it is

It is my part – no
My part – no
Because that's my part – no
Yes it's my part – no

A cry will ascend to heaven
It will cut through hosts of angels
Feather-flesh will shriekingly fall
From the top of the clouds onto my childhood

It is my part – no
My part – no
Because that's my part – no
Yes it's my part – no
It is my part – no
My part – no
Because that's my part – no
Yes it's my part – no
