    What you might not have noticed, in the beginning he sings "O Freunde, nicht diese Tonart" meaning "Oh friends, not in this key". Adds a little more hidden comedy

    for all thoose who always ask for the lyrics:
    sense of the whole sketch is that the second half of lyrics are not more than randomly combined german words XD...
    but if you are interested.....
    here are the lyrics (with commendations and some translations):
    Oh Freunde, nicht diese Töne (oh buddies not these sounds)
    Freude schöner Götterfunken (Joy, fair spark of the gods,)
    Tochter aus Elysium (Daughter of Elysium,)
    wir betreten feuertrunken (Drunk with fiery rapture, Goddess,)
    himmlische dein Heiligtum (We approach thy shrine!)
    Deine Zauber binden wieder (Thy magic reunites those)
    was die Mode streng geteilt (Whom stern custom has parted;)
    alle Menschen werden Brüder (All men will become brothers)
    wo sein sanfter Flügel weilt (Under thy gentle wing.)
    (SEARCHING FOR LYRICS)

    Donner und Blitze(n) ([literally: thunder and lightnings - referring to Santas reindeers Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner and Blitzen])
    britischer Architekt (that was the pay-off line for a TV advert for the Rover 800 in 1988, the advert depicted sleek British-made cars purring past the "Neue Staatsgalerie" in Stuttgart, designed by James Stirling)
    tomorrow belongs to me ([that's an allusion to the song "Tomorrow Belongs to Me", a song from the american movie as well as the Broadway-Musical called "Cabaret" which thematise Berlin 1931 and the rise and takeover of the Nazis)
    Schwein Hund Dummkopf - ein Bier bitte (pig dog fool - one beer please)
    Jürgen Klinsmann ist kaputt (Jürgen Klinsmann is broken)
    Boris Becker Himmel BUM BUM ("Boris Becker" heaven bum bum - "Bumm Bumm Boris" was his nickname in his past) - and "Bumm Bumm" was an ice formed like a tennis racket, stick filled with chewing gum)

    wo ist sein Skipass (where is his Skipass)
    Edelweis (mountain flower)

      But there is also nonsense not only humor, because this is nonsense to assert that the European continent has a anthem. The EU doesn't actually have an anthem either, because it's not a state and will never be a state! With this anthem, the EU pretends to be a state! Incidentally, it is absolutely absurd to call a German song the anthem of Europe! Totally disgusting!

      ​@@iang8032 a few of these are based on the very limited amount of German an average brit knows, so I can make a few changes here.
      "pother in Hamburg" is just "Berlin Hamburg"
      "shoemaker" is Schumacher, a very famous racing driver. Rowan is very much name dropping here, lol.
      "Apfelstrudel" just Apple Strudel.
      " Hoffmeister and Thorsten Pilz (?!)" is hoffmeister and holsten pils, two German beers, hence why brits would know it.
      "milk in the fridge" close, it's more "Milk in the Porshe", at this point he really is stringing together whatever school level German he has.
      As the other guy said "Vorsprung durch Technik" is the Audi slogan.
      "Donner und Blitzen" he's literally naming reindeer, lol. I know that's what their names mean, but he is only saying them because it's German.
      And at the very end, "Auf Wiedersehen, Pet" is the name of an older British comedy show, hence why it's a phrase a lot of Brits know.

      @Celrador 9 років тому +8

      Coro Gilang The originial is "Oh friends, not these NOTES!" (="Oh Freunde, nicht diese TÖNE") - Rowan Atkinson is singing "Oh friends, not this KEY!" (="Oh Freunde, nicht diese TONART"), which is a joke implying that his orchestra is playing the piece wrong.
      "Attention loving woman in milk Porsche oom-pah"
      He is actually singing "Achtung Liebfrauenmilch im Porsche" = "Attention Liebfrauenmilch in the Porsche" (Liebfrauenmilch is the name of a German quality wine and "im" = "in dem" = "in the")
      "pig, dog, fool"
      He is actually singing "Schwein(e)hund, Dummkopf" (he misspronounced the Schweinehund and left out the 2nd e) = "pigdog, fool" (Schweinehund/Sauhund = the dog used to hunt pigs a whole while back which became an insult/the name for your inner lazy asshole)
      "Jurgen Klinsmann is not broke"
      He is actually singing "Jürgen Klinsmann ist kaputt" = "Jürgen Klinsmann is broken" (kaputt = broken in the sense of a broken piece of something - i.e. the broken toy)
      "Boris Becker always boom boom"
      Not sure, but it rather sounds like "Boris Becker Himmel boom boom" = "Boris Becker heaven boom boom" (so it's heaven[=himmel] instead of always[=immer])
      Just to state the obvious: His German in this sketch is far from perfect and contains a lot of mistakes concerning grammar, pronounciation and especially context. (Even though he usually speaks rather decent German, atleast the few words he knows and when he is trying to, this is just overplayed to make it more funny.)

    Mr Bean is extremely popular in Myanmar (Burma) where the younger generation are not well versed in English. They absolutely "Love" him. He is an International Comic transcending all languages till one's belly sches with laughter! Thank you Mr Rowan Atkinson. (From Perth Western Australia) expat Burmese.
