Virmaše (pronounced [ˈʋiːɾmaʃɛ]; German: Ermern) is a settlement in the Municipality of Škofja Loka in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.
The settlement was attested in written sources in 1286 as Erenbrehen (and as Erinrich in 1291, Ernnechen and Ermbrechen before 1392, Ernwrehen in 1395, Emerhern in 1421, and Ermerhern in 1428). The Slovene name is a fused prepositional phrase, from *v Ermaše. The initial *Ver- changed to Vir- as a regular sound change in the local dialect. The root of the Slovene name is the accusative plural demonym *Erm(r)ašane, derived from the toponym *Ermrah. This was borrowed into Slovene from Middle High German *Eren-rîch, a compound originally meaning 'rich in honor'.

I've been reading what they say in the news
Hoping that I hear back from you
I wrote you this letter of explanation
A look at things from my point of view
It's a matter of supply and demand
Field research and capital gains
Success is just a product of sex and money
I've got the looks; they've got the brains
It's a necessary part of the job
Get maybe just a little involved
But most of our dealings were strictly business
I just wanted to know
If' you're okay and it's all right
Everybody's talking about
Who's with who and who's making out
Wouldn't we be better off making music
Instead of all this sleeping around?
'Cause everyone here has a mistress
It's such a dirty business
If we put our heads together
The songs will live forever
I gotta get out of this hell-hole
I'm packing my things and I'm coming home
You're okay and it's alright
You're okay, is this alright,
if I put my hand on your thigh?
