DerMitDer [English translation]
DerMitDer [English translation]
One evening he just stood before the door
The sun was about to set
stood suddenly there and said nothing - no word - to me
as he would always stand there like this
I talked to him. but he didn't talk
just stood there in the backlight
At first I didn't know who he was
I didn't know, how he's called
but then i saw his instrument
One doesn't know where he comes from
and one doesn't know, what's his name
but he mostly spreads good mood
He's pretty good in what he does
One only knows him as the man with the trombone
I can't tell how much time passed by
I don't wear a watch, luckily
The sun was in America by then
but he didn't move a bit
His instrument firm in the hand
Well, it slowly wasn't that exciting anymore
I went in, closed the door
His silence echoed through the house
I looked out to him once again
He still stood there like a monument of himself
What astonishes me even nowadays
he doesn't wear a beard. but still he's tough
And now comes his part
The next day i stood up
And then I got a shock
The trombonist just disappeared
He's not the boy with the harmonica
He doesn't need a bed and no soft down
He smokes quite much and that's bad for his play
He is, what he is: the man with the trombone
