Roses are red
that much is true,
but violets are purple,
not f*cking blue.

They are indeed purple,
But one thing you missed.
The concept of "purple"
Didn't always exist.

Some cultures lack names
For a color, you see.
Hence good old Homer
And his "wine-dark see".

A usage so quaint,
A phrasing so old,
For verses of romance
Is sheer f*cking gold.

So roses are red,
Violets once were called blue.
I'm hugely pedantic,
But what else is new?

I was sleeping very well
in my quitsching Bettgestell.
But in the middle of the Nacht
is that sch*** Ding eingekracht.
I hope that dir that not passiert
And that my English better wird!

In the Winter:
I´m runnig ziemlich fast
Doch the bus is weggerast.
And now I stay im Sleepingzimmer
and have not realy einen Schimmer,
how late it is in Wirklichkeit
denn my clock is eingeschneit.
