The Totally Bad-Ass Olli Kahn Song

Question: How bad-ass do you have to be to have a song like this named after you?

Answer: Ollie Kahn bad-ass. That’s how bad-ass.

And the best thing about this song comes from an Wikipedia. (It’s unsourced, so accept or reject based on whether or not you want to believe it):

Die Prinzen (The Princes, in English) are a German music group. The band is made up of former members of the Thomanerchor, a choir of the Thomaskirche (St. Thomas’ Church) in Leipzig, Germany, where Johann Sebastian Bach was music director for many years.

I couldn’t find an English translation of the lyrics, so I ran the German through the Babelfish translator. Babelfish ignored all the line breaks and instead gives it to us in paragraph form. Like a scary and relatively nonsensical bedtime story. But it still made me laugh.

(Any German speakers who want to give us the real translation? We’ll be forever in your debt.)
