Eulenspiegel
 

I was once born as a joker
You have baptised me three times
And with seven jokes times three
I bought the world
I bind bells to my boots
And put on my fool’s motley
For I am Till Eulenspiegel1
The jester who frees the world
Eulenspiegel, jester king
Proudly I wear my donkey ears
Eulenspiegel, jester king
I hold up a mirror to the world
Who fears my pranks?
Is the fun is too wild for you?
Eulenspiegel, jester king
I only show your reflection
I take your pictures literally
Turn your words into deeds
Present my naked ass to the world
I dance, jump, do cartwheels
Mockery and satire are my weapons
Malice is my medicine
I make the whole world laugh
Hold up a mirror to you
Eulenspiegel, jester king
Proudly I wear my donkey ears
Eulenspiegel, jester king
I hold up a mirror to the world
Who fears my pranks?
Is the fun is too wild for you?
Eulenspiegel, jester king
I only show your reflection
Some were met with bitter pranks
Some thought of revenge
But at some point, I’ll meet them all
Emperor, King, nobleman
Na na na nananana
Na na na na na na
Na na na nananana
Na nana na na
Na na na nananana
Na na na na na na
Na na na nananana
Na na na na na
Yes, I am
Eulenspiegel, jester king
Proudly I wear my donkey ears
Eulenspiegel, jester king
I hold up a mirror to the world
Who fears my pranks?
Is the fun is too wild for you?
Eulenspiegel, jester king
I only show your reflection
Yes, I am
Eulenspiegel, jester king
Proudly I wear my donkey ears
Eulenspiegel, jester king
I hold up a mirror to the world
Who fears my pranks?
Is the fun is too wild for you?
Eulenspiegel, jester king
I only show your reflection
I bind bells to my boots
And put on my fool’s motley
Eulenspiegel, jester king
As a fool, I’ve freed the world
