about

Inspired by Austrian history podcast Déjà-Vu and dedicated to host Ralf Grabuschnig. We like Ralf's tongue-in-cheek-way to present historic events and think we can do likewise.
We share an ambivalent fascination for dictators and their face behind the face behaviour which sometimes shines through when they move, pose or speak. Quickly we decided to use Walter Ulbricht for »Elite Entertainment«. The citing we used is in a way funny, tragic, mundane and not very original. Yet, it became historic in it's own peculiar way.

lyrics

Ist es denn wirklich so
das wir jeden Dreck
Ist es denn wirklich Dreck,
der vom Westen kommt?

Ist es denn wirklich so
das wir Dreck kopieren müssen?
Ich denke, Genossen, mit der Monotonie
sollte man doch Schluss machen

Ist es denn wirklich so
das wir jeden Dreck
Ist es denn wirklich Dreck,
der vom Westen kommt?

Ist es denn wirklich so
das »Je Je Je« und wie das alles heisst, ja?
Ich denke, Genossen, mit der Monotonie
sollte man doch Schluss machen

Ist es denn wirklich so
das wir jeden Dreck
Ist es denn wirklich Dreck,
der vom Westen kommt?

Ist es denn »Je Je Je«,
Dreck und wie das alles heisst, ja?
Mit der Monotonie, die vom Westen kommt,
sollte man doch Schluss machen

The original citing reads:
»Ist es denn wirklich so, dass wir jeden Dreck, der vom Westen kommt, nu kopieren müssen? Ich denke, Genossen, mit der Monotonie des Je-Je-Je, und wie das alles heißt, ja, sollte man doch Schluss machen.«
spoken by Walter Ulbricht in December 1965 at the XI. Plenum of the central committee of the SED (social-unitary-party of the GDR)
