I loove it! One of my weirdest memories is sitting by a lake ( I was 14 and somehow drunk by 3.5 beer??!) listening to this song with my bff. We still crack up as soon as we hear Tiger Lillies.True friendship FTW!!!

And right here you growl "meow" in a mad fashion four times. Fantabulous! These fellows are frigging geniuses or whatever they call it. Thanks for the video, imaraccoon.

@philipchek The musical from which this song was taken, was based on a German children's book called 'Der Struwwelpeter (1845) by Heinrich Hoffmann. I know a number of adults from Germany who were read these stories when they were children.

Well it almost makes me cry to tell What foolish Harriet does befell Mama and nurse went out one day And left her all alone to play Well on the table close at hand A box of matches chanced to stand Well mama and nurse had told her That if she touched them they would scold her Well Harriet said what a pity ‘Cos when they burn they seem so pretty They crackle so they spit and flame Mama and papa do often do the same

@tchrterri Yes , les contes d'Hoffmann are famous in many countries, wittren to talk about violence and limits with children. I don't think this song based on it can be called a lullaby. But as I say that, I know many people will react as lady gaga 's fans and will not wonder to try to think or understand the comment - and just think I do a blasphem against their idols.

I like their talent - really they are great artists - but sometime I wonder why among so many negative songs : so where is the way out ? Suicide ? But as I notice they do not suicide themselves. They are great artists to say what's bad, but I will appreciate some songs from them to say what's good. I do not want to be negative - I like their songs, they are great . But just : only negative feelings about all what's around me is not enough to fill and feed me.

Well...you don't know your Tiger Lillies then. They are one of the hardest touring bands around, mainly because they don't sell much cd's. Go to their website and check their past tours, you are in for a surprise.

This is such a great band, a wonderful tune. I'm barely learning about them and they are --as far as my research has gone on-- one of the bands i enjoy the most. There's a coincidence i just found... Rammstein's song "Hilf mir" speaks about the same subject... I think both songs are pretty bizzare and nice... I'm just trying to point out a coincidence, not making comparissons.

@nicklausdeyring Sorry to have say a blaspheme - I thought the Tigger Lillies was a group with lyrics - so that people can talk about and give their feelings. I never could have thought that a TL fan would answer with argument words like "ass" (and next probably more strong arguments like fuck, and shit, like so many people on the net) - when I said I like them - and even posted a translation based on a live video made by a friend.

@burtmurdoch sounds like someone likes to make stupid comments, really though this is the fifth time i've seen you comment with the same thing, If you don't like this or cant understand it the don't watch it. Your one of those people who says that the cant understand a magic eye picture. So please refrain from commenting on more videos so i have to take time out from listening to something i like to tell you to shut up. Thank you -Lazarus Tiberius Maxwell
