about

Prenzlauerberg is a neighbourhood in Berlin mostly inhabited by children and babies. It is a scary place. I renamed it Parentslauerberg and wrapped it in a song.

Prenzlauerberg est un quartier de Berlin-Est. Après la chute du mur, de nombreux squats d’artistes y ont trouvé refuge. Ces squats se sont progressivement transformés en agences de graphismes et publicités, les punks ont troqué leurs bombes de peintures contre des ordinateurs portables et ont entamé une phase intensive de reproduction. Résultat : un taux de natalité absurde et l’impossibilité de se mouvoir sur les trottoirs à cause du surplus de poussettes.

There's something wrong in Parentslauerberg
Something wrong in Parentslauerberg
Something wrong in Parentslauerberg
What is wrong with Parentslauerberg

BAM !
BAM !
BAM, THE PRAM
BAM, THE PRAM
PRAM SOLUTION
PRAM EXPLOSION

You don't need to be three
You need to be free
Take care of life and take care of your life
Say praaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam
Explosion

BAM ! THE PRAM
BAM ! THE PRAM

There's something wrong in Parentslauerberg
Something wrong in Parentslauerberg
Something wrong in Parentslauerberg
What is wrong with Parentslauerberg

No more babies ! Remove the babies !
Take back the babies !
No more babies please
In Parentslauerberg

BAM !
