Severity Town (Remix 2006) Songtext / Lyric

Look at the morning's golden sun

Her warmth had melt away your fantasy dreams

Of Mr. GLEE prisoned in ROCKPOMMEL's LAND

Because he'd laughed and danced holding children's hands

Look Ernie where you are, forget about Mr. GLEE

You're just awoken on Maraboo's tree



Look at the morning's golden sun

Boiling the water kettle right on her head

Old Maraboo is warming morning due for you

Ain't it enough at least for this dream to be true



But Ernie said goodbye, to find Mr. GLEE

And Maraboo gave him a feather on his way downtree

On his way, his long, long way downtree



You, have you got any aim you could hang on a name

When you're chasing around, climbing trees up and down






See this sinister confusion around, little boy watch out

You're in ROCKPOMMEL's SEVERITY TOWN

This cursed place works so graceless and so loud



(Hey, mach schneller du Ochse)



The Blackshirts have imprisoned Mr. GLEE 'cos he wants to be the children's friend

Run little Ernie, you're so young and so free

Let your faith and your feather lead you to ROCKPOMMEL's LAND



Ernie chased around and found the town gate

Where two Blackshirts were on guard

Their stoney heads looked so amazing and he laughed

That's why they tried to seize him

He skipped and struggled hard to get off

T'was a real mess around

And undesigned the Blackshirts touched his feather

Which froze in their frozen town



[Announcements (spoken): Little Ernie didn't believe his eyes when suddenly he was alone. Maraboo gave him a magic feather, which turned each Blackshirt into a stone.Totally exhausted Ernie went off this severe place and followed a way leading to the mountains. Half an hour later he rested in the shade of a HOWARD JOHNSON's Where he began to consider whether he should turn around the record or have another hot dog...]
