based on the experience of British poet Gavin Ewart

The Poem goes:
When you drink a Qualitätswein
you will never be a loser
it just means the wine is fine
for the fairly choosy boozer.
When the Bestattungsunternehmer
takes the butcher and the baker
he is not a loud proclaimer
but a quiet undertaker.

The song is inspired by a famous Chinese Poem "Error" by Zheng Chouyu (1933). The song is arranged with modern vocal effect and technique to express the atmosphere and environment of the Poem.
