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.

echt, dat däät mich öden un zwar schwer.
Wie e Wetterfähnche driehßte dich em Wind,
woher dä jraad weht ess die ejal, de Haupsaach ess, et ess der neuste
Wind.
Vun dir selvs blieht kaum jet övvrich, nur op dat wat anjesaat,
fährste aff, als bröötste jet en Schublad.
Wat ess bloß passiert dat do su mutlos bess,
dat ding Power fott ess, dat do dich dermaßen selver opjejovven häss,
ratlos römläufs wie 'ne Schatten, dä sich kleinmäht wie 'ne Zwerch,
der mir vüürkütt wie 'ne Ohß vürm Berch.
Hühr ens, Wellenreiter, t'ess nit alles Driss,
t'süht zwar baal su uss, doch et künnt sinn, - dat jenachdem - noch
jet ze ändre ess.
Nur, wie do jetz bess, pass do dänne ganz prima ent Konzept
die dich su hann wollte - halt als Depp.....
