Gestern mittag um halb eins klingelt es an meiner Tr,
Ich geh' hin und mach' auf, und da steht ein Mann vor mir,
Der sagt: "'Tschuld'gen Sie die die Strung, Guten Tag,
Komme von der Firma Lehmanns Geographischer Verlag.
Hier ist unser Vierfarbenkatalog, whl'n Sie in Ruhe aus.
Unser Slogan: 'Lehmanns Globus gehrt in jedes Haus!'
Wenn Sie mir gestatten, rat' ich Ihnen Modell acht.
Wird von innen her beleuchtet und aus Plexiglas gemacht.
Mastab eins zu hunderttausend, Vierfarbdruck fr jedes land:
Grenzen, Stdte, Kolonien alles auf dem neuesten Stand.
Erluterung und Legende liefern wir kostenlos mit.
Lieferfrist ist vierzehn Tage, woll'n Sie Teilzahlungskredit?"
Danach muss er Luft holen, und das nutz' ich blitzschnell aus.
Ich sag: "Ich brauch' keinen Globus,
Ich hab schon einen zu haus.
Zwar von 1780, wie ich eingestehen muss,
Doch dafr ist er signiert von Doktor Serenissimus!
Er zeig die fnf Kontinente sieben Meere" und ich sag:
"Daran hat sich nichts gendert, bis auf den heutigen Tag!"
Wozu brauch ich die Grenzen und wozu die Kolonien,
Wenn die Mchtigen der Welt die Grenzen wchentlich neu zieh'n!
Ebenso ist's mit den Stdten, weil mir niemand garantiert,
Dass nicht morgen ein Verrckter ganze Stdte ausradiert!
Und wenn die Versuche glcken, sprengen Sie die ganze Welt!
Geb'n Sie zu, dann ist ein Globus doch nur rausgeschmiss'nes Geld!
Seh'n Sie ein, dass mit mir heut' kein Geschft zu machenzu machen ist?
Andererseits bin cih kein rabenschwarzer Pessimist.
Eines tages kommt der Frieden, eines Tag's siegt der Verstand -
Doch bis an den tag geh'n sicher viele Jahr' noch durchs Land.
Schreiben Sie in ihr Notizbuch fr das Jahr zweitausendunddrei:
