Mother Upduff

Spoken:

Düsseldorf, 1969

Mister and Misses Upduff and grandmother Upduff

Decided they were going on a vacation

Mother Upduff hanging out in Düsseldorf for 80 years

They pack the car, they take in equipment and started driving off

To Italy

Mother Upduff was thinking about the mafia on their way to Italy

And off they went, driving in their automobile

Finally they got to Italy, beautiful old Italy, fantastic sights

Pompeii they went to

They went to Pompeii, they went to Venice, they went to Sicily

They went to Florence, their final stop was Rome

Off to Rome

Rome, there they were in Rome

Old paintings, old buildings, fantastic sights to see

Grandmother Upduff decided she was going out for a walk

Out she went for a walk

Mister and Misses Upduff decided they'd follow

Off they went behind Grandmother Upduff, yelling behind her

Mother Upduff is walking on the street, looking at all the shop windows

Finally, or is it the beginning, Mother Upduff was standing there, watching

In the fish market, a gigantic octopus leaped out off the pool and snatched Grandmother Upduff up

Little do they know what to do, Mother and Father Upduff looked

Not having any money at all

They decided that they would have to wrap her up in a tent

And carry her back to Düsseldorf

Wrapping her up in a tent, putting her on top of the car

And fiercely driving off to Düsseldorf

Off they went back to Düsseldorf

On their way to Düsseldorf, they were still in Italy

They drove into a café to have a cup of coffee

Sipping that cup of coffee up, coming back outside

Their car has been stolen with their luggage

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh…
