Iawaramoi
Hubert Von Goisern Lyrics

Buama stehts z'samm im Kroasi sag enk wos i woasz
Boys, gather around in the tavern and listen to me, I'll tell you something.

ünd's enk a Pfeiferl ander's raucha kann
And I have a pipe for anyone who wants to smoke it.

In der Zeitung do kannst lesen wos is gwesen
You can read in the newspaper what has happened.

aber obs wahr is, is net gwiss, weil liagn tuat heit jo sowieso a jeder,
But whether it's true is uncertain, because everyone lies today anyway.

und der was net liagt des is der allerbläder.
And the one who doesn't lie is the biggest fool.

A Bua bringt sein Vatern um und a sei Mutter,
A boy kills his father and mother,

und a Schwester de dawürigt grad ihr'n Bruder,
And a sister accuses her own brother,

Serben und Krawatn schiassen a schon wieder,
Serbs and Croats are shooting at each other again,

i moan i halt des nimmer aus i sauf mi nieder.
I can't take it anymore, I'll drink myself to death.

In an Beisel zett da Heider wie a Pfarrer,
In the tavern, the atheist talks like a priest,

auf de Obizahrer und de Schwarzfahrer,
Talking about the rich and the fare dodgers,

Kommunisten und de ganze Packlrass,
And insulting Communists and the whole bunch of misfits,

der sagt eanas eini des is klass.
Calling them out as all the same.

Derweil er so schen schimpft der ex-goiserer,
Meanwhile, the exiled Goiserer talks about peace,

sterbn tausend Leut' drunt in Afrika,
While thousands die in Africa,

aber mia hab'n zum Fressen und zum Saufen gnua,
But we have enough to eat and drink,

schaun ma daß so bleibt und drahn ma d'Hüttn zua.
So let's keep it that way and close our doors.

Iawaramoi geht oana auf und sagt jetzt scheiß i drauf,
Someone stands up and says, 'I don't care anymore,'

jetzt hab i gnua, i wüll mei Ruah;
I've had enough, I want my peace;

undiawaramoi da nimmt er dann sei gwehr und sagt zu wem: Geh her du Depp, i blos di aus de Schuah!
And then he takes his gun and says to someone, 'Come here you fool, I'll shoot you out of your shoes!'

Iawaramoi da fliegt a Bomben von der rechten Seiten,
And then bombs are dropping from the right wing,

des san Zeiten alle streiten
These are times of conflict, everyone is fighting.

iawaramoi do fragt mi dann mei bua:
And then my son asks me,

He Vater sog mer nurwer san die Bled'n wer die Gscheit'n?
'Hey father, can you tell me who the fools are and who the wise ones are?'

Ob Krawatn oder Serbn, alle müaßen sterben.
Whether Croats or Serbs, everyone has to die.

Ob Serb oder Krawat, um an jeden is schad.
Whether Serb or Croat, everyone is harmed.
