The Rat Catcher (englische Übersetzung) Lyrics

The Rat Catcher (englische Übersetzung)

I am the well-known singer 
The well-travelled rat catcher  
Of whom this famous old town  
Is definitely in need 
And if there are still as many rats  
And if there are weasels in the game 
Of everything I cleanse this place 
They all have to leave wiht me 
 
Then the good-humoured singer 
A children catcher among others 
Who even forces the wildest 
When he sings golden fairy tales 
And if the lads are still so defiant 
And if the girls are still suspicious 
With my strings I intervene 
They all have to come in behind me 
 
Of everything I cleanse this place 
They all have to leave with me 
 
I play a chord  
They come with me 
With the whole pack 
I leave the town 
Hunting in the night  
 
Then the much-wandered singer 
Is occasionally a girl catcher 
There is no small town 
Where he`s not had a few  
And if the girls are still so dull 
And if the women are still so aloof 
But all are afraid of love 
In magic strings and song 
 
Of everything I cleanse this place 
They all have to leave with me 
 
I play a chord … 
 
Mockery and derision to you 
I will now get my reward
