Trödler & Co

Wir sind die Trödler und Company
Und dies ist unsere Melodie
Wir sind die Trödler und Company
Und machen Trödlermusik

Wir sind die Trödler und Company
So was wie uns sah die Welt noch nie
Unser Zuhause ist nirgendwo
Wir sind die Trödler und Co

In alten Sachen die überall steh'n
Da schlafen manchmal die schönsten Ideen, whoa…
Wir machen sie zum Musikinstrument
Und so entstand unsre Band

Zuerst hat jemand die Töpfe gebracht
Daraus war bald schon ein Schlagzeug gemacht, whoa…
Und was in so einer Gießkanne steckt
Klingt als Trompete perfekt

Wir sind die Trödler und Company
Und dies ist unsere Melodie
Wir sind die Trödler und Company
Und machen Trödlermusik

Es war im Garten von Omamama
Wo eines Morgens das Wunder geschah, whoa…
Seit jenem Tage da spielen wir auch
Auf einem Gartenschlauch

Wir sind die Trödler und Company
Und dies ist unsere Melodie, whoa…
Wir sind die Trödler und Company
Und machen Trödlermusik
Und machen Trödlermusik
Wir mаchen Trödlermuѕik

Dawdler & co

We are the dawdler and company
And this is our melody
We are the dawdler and company
And make dawdler music

We are the dawdler and company
Something like us, the world has never seen before
Our home is nowhere
We are the dawdler and co

In old things that stand everywhere
Sometimes the best ideas are sleeping, whoa…
We convert them to musical instruments
And so our band was created

First somebody braught the pots
Out of this soon already percussion drums were made, whoa…
And what is inside of a watering can
Sounds perfectly like a trumpet

We are the dawdler and company
And this is our melody
We are the dawdler and company
And make dawdler music

It was in the garden of our grandma
Where one morning the wonder happened, whoa…
Since that day we are also playing
On a garden hose

We are the dawdler and company
And this is our melody, whoa…
We are the dawdler and company
And make dawdler music
And make dawdler music
We make dаwdler muѕic

Second Hand Company

We are the Second Hand Company
And here we go with our melody
We are the Second Hand Company
And we'll be playing for you

We are the Second Hand Company
And if you write out a symphony
We're gonna change your mind instantly
So listen what we will do

We'll turn the lumber that's lying around
Into a really sensational sound, whoa…
So anything that was useless to you
Is full the music in you

Old pots and boxes are beautiful drums
And if you're ready to go – here it comes, whoa…
Our very special recycling programme
Starts with a watering can

We are the Second Hand Company
And here we go with our melody
We are the Second Hand Company
And we'll be playing for you

Looks like we're gonna be dancing tonight
Let's work it out 'cause the time is all right, whoa…
It sounds like samba, you'd never suppose
That it's a garden-hose

We are the Second Hand Company
And here we go with our melody, whoa…
We are the Second Hand Company
And we'll be playing for you
And we'll be playing for you
Yeѕ, we'll be plаying for you
