The #1 song in Germany is "Schnappi " Schnappi, das kleine Krokodil
(http://allcharts.org/music/germany/singles.htm)

Here is a link to the song http://213.158.118.36/schnappi/schnappi.mp3

my guess would be that is the theme from a german cartoon or somesuch. especially since "das kleine Krokodil" translates to "the small crocodile"

Here is the text to the song

Ich bin Schnappi das kleine Krokodil
komm aus Ägypten, das liegt direkt am Nil
zuerst lag ich in einem Ei
dann schni schna schnappte ich mich frei

Ref:
schni schna schnappi schnappi schnappi schnapp
schni schna schnappi schnappi schnappi schnapp

Ich bin Schnappi das kleine Krokodil
hab scharfe Zähne und davon ganz schön viel
ich schnapp mir was ich schnappen kann
ja schnapp zu weil ich das so gut kann

Ref.

Ich bin Schnappi das kleine Krokodil
ich schnappe gern das ist mein Lieblingsspiel
ich schleich mich an die Mama ran
und zeig ihr wie ich schnappen kann

Ref.

ich bin Schnappi das kleine Krokodil
und vom schnappen da krieg ich nicht zuviel
ich beiss den Papi kurz ins Bein

und dann dann schlafe ich einfach ein
Ref.

My rough English translation:

I am Schnappi the small crocodile
I come from Egypt which is located directly at the Nile
first I lay in an egg then I schni schna snatched it freely

Ref:
schni schna schnappi schnappi schnappi snatch schni schna schnappi schnappi schnappi snatch

I am Schnappi the small crocodile
I have sharp teeth and they are completely beautifully
much I snatch, I snatch you too because I can

Ref.

I am so good Schnappi the small crocodile
I snatch gladly, that is my favourite play
I creep to the mummy, ran and show it because I can be snatched

Ref.

I am Schnappi the small crocodile
and from to snatch the war I not too much
I bite there the Papi briefly in the leg
and then then I simply fall asleep

At least it didn't have anything to do with 99 red balloons. Those Germans are weird.

Perhaps schnappi is in fact telling a story, but its a story that is beyond the scope of our feeble American brains where mediocrity is encouraged and intellectuals are considered elitist snobs.

POST-MODERN!
