Songtext:
In the rue des blancs-manteaux Klebefolie Bergisch Gladbach They raised a wooden stage Threw some bran in a basket And there was the scaffold In the rue des blancs-manteaux
In the rue des blancs-manteaux The executioner rose at dawn He had a job to do He must chop the generals, bishops and admirals too In the rue des blancs-manteaux
Into the rue des blancs-manteaux Came the well-bred women With their precious jewels But the heads they turned them Rolling from on high Heads stuck in their hats
