“Ami, Go Home!“- East German Anti-American Song (RARE/ALTERNATE LYRICS)
Thank you so much for 1,000 subscribers! :DD (this is the 1K special)
The word “Ami“ roughly translates to “Yankee“ (German slang for “American“)
Special thanks to @StormAce96 for transcribing the entire thing :)
Original audio:
0:23- “Pershing Number Two“ (Pershing II) refers to an American missile by the same name, of which 108 were deployed in (West) Germany in 1979-80.
0:25- “die cruise-missile“ refers to American Ground Launched Cruise Missiles, 160 of which were deployed to Europe.
0:56- “Schmierenkomödiant“ literally means “bad actor“ or “bad comedian“, in this case a “clown“ (the US president at the time).
1:24- “stay within your own longitude!“ is a literal translation of the phrase “Bleib auf deinem Längengrad!“ but can be translated to “stay within your own boundaries!“
1:25- “dollar-dance“ or money dance- #United_States_and_Canada
1:55- The audio breaks here so its hard to tell what is actually being said.
Theres no English article on the song, only a German one.
