Lines by Angela Merkel 6

AMAngela Merkel

[singing] My economists told me we'd be talking a week

I said, darling, all these figures, to me it's all Greek

Everybody, everywhere wants some money

And they wonder why we Germans don't find things funny

If you bail out a nation you expect a little gratitude

But let me tell you, baby, all you get's a lot of attitude

One long, never-ending economic wreck

At the end of which is Germany signing every cheque

I'm a honey with the money and, honey, it ain't funny

When the honey with the money has to shell out all the money

And it's funny how the countries that suddenly need the money

And whose idea was the Eurozone?

[Angela scats]

Far, far, far on the autobahn

[Angela scats]

Neunundneunzig Luftballons

The pain in Spain gives me a migraine

They exploit us all in Portugal

Go to Slovakia, they just attack-ia

When you're hanging out with Putin, don't put your foot in,

Or else Putin will put his boot in

There's an inner Putin, Vladimir Putin

Mamma Mia don't mess in Crimea

Crimea, Crimea

Cry me a river, what are you going to do?

Birgit: Sing! Sing!

Angela Merkel: I like soul and R&B

Crowd: And Eurovision secretly

Angela Merkel: I speak Russian fluently

Crowd: Good accent apparently

Angela Merkel: Got a degree in chemistry

Crowd: At Leipzig University

Angela Merkel: I've never taken LSD

Crowd: But she drinks beer occasionally

Angela Merkel: Favourite sandwich, BLT

Angela Merkel: Her middle name is Dorothy

Angela Merkel: Eins, zwei, drei, vier Get me an Uber over here

Ja.

AMAngela Merkel

[singing] I thought they were my friends

I thought that we were cool

Now I'm like the schlummy dummy no-one likes at school

Behind my back they're laughing

Especially the Brits

They're like, "Angela, whatever."

Those stupid Brexit shits

On the refugees I acted

The moment when I ask for help they all gang up on me

All on my own

Here I am

All on my own

Who gives a damn?

Ratings at an all time low

Oh, man, it makes me blue

Oh, Birgit, baby, be a buddy

Tell me vhat to do

Birgit: Don't let those schweine get you down

They do not have a clue

You're the EU anchor EU banker

That's why they hate you

Angela Merkel: Too true!

Birgit: We've always worked things out

Since we were oh so small

Angela Merkel: So small!

Birgit: Dreaming of another life on the right side of the wall

Angela Merkel: I used to be so va-va-voom

It all was so light-hearted

Now when I walk into a room it's like, "Mein Gott, who farted?"

All on my own

[Birgit: No, you're not, my Chancellorette. Here I am]

All on my own

[Birgit: Nein, nein. Here I am I give a damn]

Up scheisse creek with no paddle

They've brought me to my knees

So now it's just the two of us

Birgit: And a million refugees

AMAngela Merkel

Ja, that's true, that's true. Theresa, come out and fight with me. Come out, come on, give me some! Do you want some?

Scenes with Angela Merkel 10

AMAngela Merkel

Well? What did she say?

Not much.

AMAngela Merkel

Did she talk about me?

Not really.

AMAngela Merkel

Did she want the beige cheeks and the poufy hair?

She has a very strong accent, I didn't really understand.

AMAngela Merkel

I should probably try and be nicer to her, after all, Scotland did want to stay with us. Maybe we could be friends.

Ja.

AMAngela Merkel

Was ist das?

She gave me a Loch Ness Monster fridge magnet. Actually, it's three magnets that fit together to make one monster. It's very clever. Do you want it for your collection?

AMAngela Merkel

No. What else did she give you?

I think she might have offered me a job.

AMAngela Merkel

What?! I knew it. I'm going give that woman a Glasgow kiss.

Angela! Please!

AMAngela Merkel

If she wants independence, I'll make her head independent from her body.

Angela, I don't want everybody fighting over me.

AMAngela Merkel

Uberraschung. Surprise!

What are you doing here?

AMAngela Merkel

Well, I suddenly thought to myself, why should I help to clear all this mess up? The British can scoop their own poop. So, I arranged a private meeting with the CEO of Boots, and I let them get on with it.

Wunderschon!

AMAngela Merkel

Yes, besides, I never see London, you know? I just see the airports and the conference centre, and Theresa May talking about Brexit means Brexit, means Shmexit, means argh... Oh, it feels so good to feel the wind in my hairspray!

AMAngela Merkel

Oh, look at this man drinking a Pilsner in the morning. He must be a great supporter of our German brewing industry.

Look, dachshunds!

This is more German than Germany.

AMAngela Merkel

Ja. Oh, Burgit, what are they going to do without us?

Oh, I don't know, mein Chancellor. These people, they look so sad.

AMAngela Merkel

Maybe I should invite them all to come and stay at my place?

Like those Syrian friends of ours?

AMAngela Merkel

Ja, ja, why not? Who knows? It's an open house.

Nein. You will have shitloads of the Brits paddling across the Channel. These people are desperate.

AAngela

Birgit, have you seen this? All these poor actresses earning less than their male co-stars. I mean, come on, people! It's 2018.

It's disgusting, is vat it is.

AAngela

Ja. These poor woman living in the shadow of this male-led system in which they are horribly outnumbered and over Birgit, vat if all the male world leaders are earning big bucks and I am making half of what they do? Vat if I am Michelle Williams and they are a big bunch of Mark Wahlbergs?

Don't be so ridiculous. You are not Michelle Williams.

AAngela

Although...?

Although you do look like sisters. But there's no way the Greek PM is earning more than you.

AAngela

Oh, I didn't mean the Greek one. He probably makes less than you do!

AAngela

No, but what about the Putins and the Trudeaus and the Macrons?

Ja, but that is not a fair comparison. Trudeau and Macron make a fortune from calendars alone.

AAngela

And Putin bare-chested on that horse sells an awful lot for a country with no gays.
