What a coincidence! I was just humming that old familiar Bavarian tune,
sung each year by nursing moms to their suckling babes, all the way through adulthood..my music teacher, Herr Herring, translated the text into rhyming English, so we could learn it in my village on the Navajo
Reservation with no electricity or plumbing. This song made us so happy, we didn't care...skipping down the dirt roads,..holding hands, us happy children would laugh and sing...(humming to self)

"O tapped is keg with hammer swing
Now men in shorts start yodeling
And drink from steins 2 liters high
Then pee in troughs that stand nearby
O lusty barmaid come to me
And sing songs from the Valkyrie
You wear those horns upon your head
While I shall wear my horns in bed..
In all my drunk hysteria
Is this Austria or Bavaria?
We raise our steins and bratwurst high
And drink until the keg is dry!"......

which tranlates from the rough German text...

".Geklopftes O ist Faß mit Hammer-Schwingen Jetzt Männer in Shorts fangen yodeling an, und Getränk von 2 Liter hoch Maßkrügen pisst Dann in Mulden, die nahe gelegenes O stehen, kommt kräftige Barkellnerin zu mir Und singt Lieder von der Walküre Sie tragen jene Hörner auf Ihren Kopf, während ich meine Hörner in Bett tragen werde..
In meiner ganzen betrunkenen Hysterie Ist dieses Österreich oder Bayern?
Wir erheben(erziehen) unsere Maßkrüge und bratwurst hoch Und Getränk, bis das Faß trocken ist!"

Thank you imaginary friend! You made an old man reminisce!

It means, "It's tapped!" in Bavarian dialect. Whith this words the Mayor of Munich eropens the "Oktoberfest", after he successfully plugged the nozzel into the first barrel of beer while he opened it.

If I put this babel fish in my ear will it tell me?


Katerade Turdo Fo' Sho'
Yeah, no sheeeeet. That's why the beer hasn't been tasting as good... Cause I've been having to f-ing pay for it.

It's the after rally party at Nuremburg. Hitler was so smashed that they had to get the next keg opened by a village idiot, see them gathering in their thousands to compete for the priviledge. "O' zapft is" translates at "I'm fecked"
