Aber bitte mit Sahne [English translation]

They meet everyday at a quarter past three, oh, oh, oh (Oh yeah)

at the regular’s table in the corner in the pastry shop, oh oh oh (Oh yeah)

and storm towards the the cake buffet, to blackforest cherry and to cream-meringue

to sherbet, pineapple, cherry and banana,

but please with cream! (But please, with cream!)

They talk and smack their lips, then they pick up, oh oh oh (Oh yeah)

more butter cream cake and bee sting cake, oh oh oh (Oh yeah)

they puff and snort, almost nothing more goes in,

just a Mohrenkopf (chocolate covered marshmallow) at most

, because Mathilde, Ottilie, Marie and Liliane need regulation,

but please with cream! (But please, with cream!)

And the end of the song probably everyone has guessed, oh oh oh (Oh yeah)

That death has in turn skimmed them there, oh oh oh (Oh yeah)

The survivors found out of sorrow no words,

with Sacher- und Linzer- und Marzipan fancy cakes.

As the last Liliane still held true to the flag,

but please with cream! (But please, with cream!)

But even with Liliane it was in the end finished, oh oh oh (Oh yeah)

She toppled from the stool in the pastry shop, m hm hm (Oh yeah!)

On the casket there were instead of wreathes, sugar coated cakes,

and the Priest buried her with touching words

because the Lord God clears the way to heaven for her

One more small cup of coffee? (But please with cream!)

Another small meringue? (But please with cream!)

(Spoken: ) Or perhaps it should really be a cookie?

(But please with cream!)
