BAP (German band)
BAP Colognian (Kölsch) pronunciation: [bap] is a German rock group. With eleven albums reaching the number one in the German record charts, BAP is one of the most successful rock acts in their home country.
Nearly all of BAP's lyrics are written in Kölsch, the dialect of Cologne, or more precisely in a Kölsch-influenced derivation of Eifelplatt, a regional variant of the Ripuarian language spoken in the nearby rural Eifel. Niedecken's most prominent musical influences, especially early in his career, were Bob Dylan, the Kinks, Bruce Springsteen, the Rolling Stones, and Wolfgang Ambros.
History
The group was founded in 1976 under the name Wolfgang Niedecken's BAP in Cologne, Germany by Wolfgang Niedecken and Hans Heres. In 1981, they released their most famous song "Verdamp lang her" (English: Damn long time ago), in which Niedecken describes regrets he has about his relationship with his then recently deceased father. The band's name "BAP" derived from "BAPP", both, a play-on-words on the Kölsch word "Papp" (related to the German word dad), but pronounced differently, and Niedecken's then-times nickname.

Jraaduss
by: BAPManchmol setz ich he roem un ich frooch mich, woroem
et su kumme moot, wie et kohm, wie et jetz ess
un ich saach mer, dat et irgendwo wiggerjonn muss, jraaduss.
Noch haeng ding Bild ahn der Wand un maeht mich rejelraesch krank
ich han ding Stemm noch em Uhr un ich froore mich nur
ob dat alles nix woor, en dae letzte paar Johr, met dir.
Refrain:
Bliev do, wo de bess,
halt dich irgendwo fess.
un bliev su, wie de woors,
jraaduss.
Avv un zo merk ich dann, wie joot et dunn kann,
wmmer Luftschloesser baut un op Zofall vertraut,
janix mieh plant, op janix mieh waat, nur su.
Dann weet alles verdraeng, weil sons nix mieh jet bring,
weil sons himmelblau grau weet und mir alles zovill weet
weil em jedem Jedanke e Bild vun dir steck, jank weg.
Refrain: ...
We woor schoen, et woor joot, ahm Eng e bessje ze koot,
dausend un ein Naach, wo Donner un Bletz kraach,
'ne Film ohne Schlua, wo nix ess wie et muss, jraaduss.
Denk ens aff un zo dran, ahn dat wat met noch hann,
wat uns keiner mieh nemp, weil et wohr ess un stemp,
ahn dan Stoeck 'Ich' vun dir un dat Stoeck 'Do' von mir, jraaduss.
