    When the snow falls wunderbar
    And the children happy are,
    When the Glatteis on the street,
    And we all a Glühwein need,
    Then you know, es ist soweit:
    She is here, the Weihnachtszeit

    Every Parkhaus ist besetzt,
    Weil die people fahren jetzt
    All to Kaufhof, Mediamarkt,
    Kriegen nearly Herzinfarkt.
    Shopping hirnverbrannte things
    And the Christmasglocke rings.

    Merry Christmas, merry Christmas,
    Hear the music, see the lights,
    Frohe Weihnacht, Frohe Weihnacht,
    Merry Christmas allerseits...

    Mother in the kitchen bakes
    Schoko-, Nuss- and Mandelkeks
    Daddy in the Nebenraum
    Schmücks a Riesen-Weihnachtsbaum
    He is hanging auf the balls,
    Then he from the Leiter falls...

    Finally the Kinderlein
    To the Zimmer kommen rein
    And es sings the family
    Schauerlich: "Oh, Chistmastree!"
    And the jeder in the house
    Is packing die Geschenke aus.

    Merry Christmas, merry Christmas,
    Hear the music, see the lights,
    Frohe Weihnacht, Frohe Weihnacht,
    Merry Christmas allerseits...
    Mama finds unter the Tanne
    Eine brandnew Teflon-Pfanne,
    Papa gets a Schlips and Socken,
    Everybody does frohlocken.

    President speaks on TV,
    All arround is Harmonie,
    Bis mother in the kitchen runs:
    Im Ofen burns the Weihnachtsgans.

    And so comes die Feuerwehr
    With Tatü, tata daher,
    And they bring a long, long Schlauch
    An a long, long Leiter auch.
    And they schrei - "Wasser marsch!",
    Christmas is - now im - Arsch

    Merry Christmas, merry Christmas,
    Hear the music, see the lights,
    Frohe Weihnacht, Frohe Weihnacht,
    Merry Christmas allerseits...
