Heinrich Mühlsiepen 1836 -1901
Dä Domme Stoht
(the stupid fashion addiction)
The girls are really cool
So foolishly dry.
I don’t know a woman or a man,
Hant even has long curls.
That’s hot, that’s right on the head
Ace like Kappeshögl.
With Naule they are whipped and dropped
And a few broken Vögel.
De Ströpp, they consecrate before and after
The walls are fun.
A skin on a sheet of glass paper,
These are German women.
Camel legs on the fott
Ace for camel humps.
Dat Hemp ös achter un vör got
On beedste Strömp völl Onions.
Wenn früh if Elf Visit sprek vör,
This is a surprise.
The garbage still licks in front of the door,
Have not been combed or washed.
They wear glasses and sunscreen
Bottles in hand,
For wind the snow is firm,
We don’t use enough smoke.

Note:
It seems to be one of master carpenter Mühlsiepen’s early satirical verses, carefree and cheeky and in a mixture of colloquial German and dialect.
You can see his joy in mockery that affected everything and everyone and had nothing to do with misogyny.
For many things he gave the melody to which they should be sung. The Saarland carnival club was particularly chosen for this purpose.
The image of verse turning is rarely as fitting as it is for him, the master carpenter from Kölner Strasse, and you can easily imagine how he combined his job and hobby.
Describing the back-lined dress, the feathers on the hat as dead birds and the lace cleavage as a broken shirt is really strong.
Was he something like Thorsten Sträter from Saarn?
