Yes, yes, yes, now we spit into our hands again! The nurse gets a big fright Again a sick man is gone They amputated his last leg And now he's back on his knees again! Yes, now they're spitting in their hands again We'll increase the gross national product Yes, yes, yes, now they're spitting in their hands again! When grandpa gets on his bike on Sunday And secretly enters the factory Then grandma is afraid that he will collapse Because grandpa's on extra shift again today! Yes, now we're spitting into our hands again We'll increase the gross national product - Yes, yes, yes, now we're spitting into our hands again! A-a-at Christmas all lie around and say puh-uh-uh-uh The garbage can does not close any more The gift tables are getting more and more colorful And on Wednesday the garbage collector comes and fetches all the junk And says now we spit into our hands again We increase the gross national product! Yes, yes, yes, now we spit in the hands again! When the factory siren blares early in the morning And the time clock groans with pleasure as it is punched Then one after the other the work frenzy has taken hold And now they sing together in Work-cycle-cycle-cycle-cycle-cycle-cycle: "Yes, now they're spitting into their hands again - We'll increase the gross national product! Yes, yes, yes, now we spit in the hands again! We are increasing the gross national product! Yes, yes, yes, now we're spitting into our hands again!"
