The hero of the city sometimes walks in his socks
_____
The d*ck of the city doesn't always make those messes
_____
It's hard to live up to a title like 'Hero of the city'
_____
He has zero energy to point his finger
_____
No, not the youngest anymore, his hair keeps getting grayer
_____
The Hero of the city, the hero's had enough for now
_____
With a barmaid who sweetly shakes her ass and spins her records
_____
The Hero f*cked off for a little while
_____
Sitting for a bit on that stool of the d*ck of the city
_____
And the d*ck of the city sees the Hero in his spot
_____
His beer and his smokes, that's his hangout
_____
But he also sees the Hero, his sad little face, and keeps quiet
_____
And the Hero says out loud: 'What do I do now, man?
_____
'Cause everybody still has their own opinion
_____
So who am I to decide what can and can't be?'
_____
And so they sat there, blaming nobody for a moment
_____
The Hero and the d*ck, so brotherly, silent
_____
Grins on their mugs, 'cause that barmaid just kept spinning
_____
And worries, you can deal with those tomorrow again
_____
And that's how they became friends, about forty years
_____
Playing pool together, and both with little hair
_____
A fart would crack them up, and they'd tell each other the truth
_____
Tomorrow came way too fast
_____
Glasses on their noses, they sat there side by side
_____
And old age crept in, and sickness, huffing, groans, sobs, sh*t
_____
Listening? No way, they both wanted to be right
_____
And even on the deathbed still a hefty fart
_____
The laugh and the tear were their eternal self-preservation
_____
'Hey d*ck,' said the Hero, 'we had it fixed up nicely
_____
Just bury me over there tomorrow.'
_____
And there stood the d*ck, and the grave was deserted
_____
Had lots of friends, and left nothing behind
_____
And the rain softly beat on the muddy path
_____
And he softly hummed the barmaid's song
_____
Remembered that crucial fight for the kiss from that girl
Well, he'd gotten that one
_____
And now he beat the Hero again, who'd ever have thought
_____
But it hurt him way more than he'd ever expected
_____
And he said: 'I miss you, my friend, farewell and sleep tight'
