Neulich war ich mal wieder in Amerika

Und da traf ich einen Herrn von der Mafia
And then I met a gentleman from the mafia
Er lud mich ein in ein Makkaroni-Restaurant

Und ich dachte, „Okay, gehst mal mit'

Vielleicht wird das ganz interessant

Er sagt

Ein kurzer Wink und 'ne schwarze Limousine fuhr vor Ort

Und später saßen wir da in der Chicago-Bar

Und nach jedem Glas Chianti

„Hallo Ober, noch 'ne Ladung und zwar avanti, avanti'
“Hello waiter, another load, namely avanti, avanti”
Und dann packt er sich das Glas, das volle

Und sagt: „Alles unter Kontrolle'

Er hat 'n Streifenanzug an

Und Gamaschen wie Al Capone

Und die Beule in der Jacke
And the bulge in the jacket
Die kam von der Kanone
It came from the cannon
„Signor Controlletti il Chianti prego'
"Signor Controlletti il Chianti prego"
Und wollte er noch wissen
And he still wanted to know
Wie's denn überhaupt so wäre
What would it be like?
Mit dem Showbusiness in Deutschland

Und speziell auch mit meiner Karriere

Ich sag', ich mache da grad so 'n Ding
I say, I'm doing something like that
Mit 'ner höllisch heißen Panik-Band

Und Johnny Controlletti

Übernahm sofort das Management

Er sagt

Die Jungs vom Syndikat sind enorm professionell

Und so saßen wir da in der Chicago-Bar

Und er sagt: „Alles klar, mein Bester
And he says: “All right, my dear
Ich mache dich über Nacht zum Superstar

Dich und dein Katastrophen-Orchester'
You and your disaster orchestra'
Und dann reicht er mir das Glas, das volle
And then he hands me the glass, the full one
Und sagt: „Alles unter Kontrolle'
