Und der Nymphen Sittich dann-
wenn man sich sowas leisten kann-. der klebt seit Wochen auf dem Boden-
dort klebt er fest an seinen Hoden.
Da hab ich UHU draufgestrichen,
um dem Hund eins auszuwischen.
Der sang so laut, die ganze Nacht, hat mich
um meinen Schlaf gebracht. Mein Schlaf ist Gold , das sag ich dir
du festgeklebtes blödes Tier
