Noch nie ein Mauer gesehn ?Jamais vu un mur ? Free !

We passed the check point Charlie
To see the east .
There it was a strange atmosphere
Like a Sunday
Very few people in the street
Was it Sunday ?
Don’t remember
Went in a bar
To see what the girls look like
The only girls we knew was the east German swimmers
The only girl was the waitress
Trying to smile
No answer …..
We visited the museum
And met Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels
I don’t know why I didn’t do any picture
Then we returned to the west
And decided to go back in France
During three days we had no sleep
The feast was ended….

We were three young men
Bad kids in reality
Passing through the steel curtain
Proud to be free

On the road back
At the border between east and west
The cop of east
Seeing our insolent faces
Decided to stop us
Four long hours in the post
He was trying to find drugs
We were stupid but not so
Nothing in the hands , nothing in the pockets
All in the head !!!

My friend T…… exceeded seeing that the customs
Found nothing to keep us
Speaking German said to him
“Tschüss nextes Jahr du wirst Arbeitslos”
“ Bye bye next year you become unemployed”
Yes freedom of the west is not for free.

A year later we heard that the steel curtain
Was becoming porous
And then we heard the fantastic noise of the breaking wall

This wall knew nothing about your strength M…. !!!
