Latein(original) |
Er war nicht besonders witzig |
Und er war nicht sehr gut gebaut |
Er hatte keine schicken Sachen an |
Er war nicht sportlich und nicht laut |
Stach nicht hervor aus der Masse |
Und die Jungs aus seiner Klasse |
Verstanden’s einfach nicht: |
Denn die Mädels zog es trotzdem zu ihm |
Wie die Motten zum Licht |
Er war der Beste in Latein |
Der Allerbeste in Latein |
Wie er die Verben konjugierte |
Substantive deklinierte — |
Das konnt' nur er allein … |
Er war exakt wie 'ne Maschine |
Er wusste sogar, wenn er schlief: |
Auf a, ab, e, ex, de, cum, sine |
Und pro und prae folgt Ablativ |
Er rezitierte ganze Fabeln |
Beherrschte die Vokabeln |
Und war immer hellwach |
Und die Mädels aus der Klasse |
Wurden reihenweise schwach |
Er war der Beste in Latein |
Er schrieb nur Einsen oder Zwei’n |
Und sang er ein Klagelied |
Von Horaz oder von Ovid |
Fing’n die Mädels an zu weinen … |
Doch dann bekam er sein Latinum |
Sein Leben nahm 'ne böse Wende |
Denn dadurch war er in der Schule |
Mit sein’m Latein total am Ende |
Er war der Beste in Latein |
Er war Experte unter Laien … |
(translation) |
He wasn't particularly funny |
And he wasn't very well built |
He wasn't wearing any fancy clothes |
He was not athletic and not loud |
Don't stand out from the crowd |
And the boys from his class |
Just didn't get it: |
Because the girls were drawn to him anyway |
Like moths to the light |
He was the best at Latin |
The very best in Latin |
How he conjugated the verbs |
nouns declined — |
Only he could do that... |
He was exactly like a machine |
He even knew when he slept: |
On a, off, e, ex, de, cum, sine |
And pro and prae follows ablative |
He recited entire fables |
Mastered the vocabulary |
And was always wide awake |
And the girls from the class |
Got weak in droves |
He was the best at Latin |
He only wrote ones or twos |
And he sang a lament |
By Horace or by Ovid |
The girls started crying... |
But then he got his Latinum |
His life took a bad turn |
Because of that he was in school |
Totally at the end of his wits |
He was the best at Latin |
He was an expert among laypeople... |
