Super Furry Animals lyrics - Hermann Loves Pauline Hermann ©'s Pauline

Hermann loves Pauline and Pauline loves Hermann
They made love and gave birth to a little German
(Hermann loves Pauline and Pauline loves Hermann)
They call him MC˛ because he raps like no other
(Hermann loves Pauline and Pauline loves Hermann)
An asthma sufferer like Ernesto Guevara
(Hermann loves Pauline and Pauline loves Hermann)

Too much Monte Cristo Number Four
(Hermann and Pauline)
Pass the ventolin I need some more
(They had a daughter too)
We have ways of making you think
We have ways of making you think
(Than to be just a two point)
We have ways of making you think
(Four family)
We have ways of making you think
(Insanity)
We have ways of making you think
(Personality, ahaha)
They told me over a drink

They never noticed him at school they tell me
He kept himself to himself
He used to sit and stare up at the ceiling
Hermann loves Pauline
They never noticed him at school they tell me
He suffered poor health
He used to vacantly stare out the window
Feeling under

Why do you do what they tell you?

Marie Curie was Polish born but French bred, ha! French bread!
Of course she ended up dead from radiation
Slow invisible suffocation
Down the twenty-four hour garage or any service station
I lead my life in a quest for information
Sensurrounded by pies and books
Middle-aged drivers and deranged cooks

They never noticed her at school they tell me
She kept herself to herself
She used to sit and stare up at the ceiling
Hermann loves Pauline
They never noticed her at school they tell me
She suffered poor health
She used to vacantly stare out the window
Feeling under

Why do you do what they tell you?

They never noticed her at school they tell me
She kept herself to herself
She used to sit and stare up at the ceiling
Hermann loves Pauline
They never noticed him at school they tell me
He suffered poor health
He used to vacantly stare out the window
Feeling under

Quote (1) (Gruff):
"That's pieces of useless information collected at garages piled into one song."
Quote (2) (Gruff):
"It's all about Einstein and how people didn't think he was very clever at school. We spent ages travelling in the tour bus by this time and would always buy those 99p biographies of different people. We had Kurt Cobain, Einstein, Malcolm X, Marie Curie and Nigel Mansell. We used to buy them and in ten minutes you'd be up on all these famous people."
