I was wondering if anyone could help with the following questions: - what
does Knorkator mean? and also
In the song Mich verfolgt meine eigene scheisse - Stumpen sings in his
female voice a short sentence which appears to be in Russian. Why?
Thanks.

Knorke = super, fabulous, etc. Ator is the last name of one of the
members...I think they combined them to make Knorkator...or something liek
that :-D

You mean "Nawos pamjiot, beshjiet, sa mnoij
Kuda, kuda, ja sprashju" ?

No idea what that is :)

I have not heard the song, but if someone tells me where to find it I can
translate the Russian (it's my first language). The reason that what Jobarr
has written is not enough is because in Russian we use Cyrillic characters,
not Roman ones, and I was not able to tell what "nawos pamjiot" is supposed
to mean.

"Beshjiet, sa mnoij. Kuda, kuda, ja sprashju?" means "Runs, with me. Where,
where, I ask?"

Hmm, Well....that is how it is written in the lyrics! You have no idea? Can
you guess? :)

Don't forget to mention that this word is Berlin dialect (the best German
dialect *g*)

A word with "ator" at the end is usually a kind of a machine or device.
Example: a Perforator perforates things. And a Knorkator makes things or
people knorke. *g*

Yeah that makes sense!

Navos, Pamjot - are two variations of the word "shit" - usually, however,
in reference to animal shit - Navoz is cowshit, pamjot is birdshit. Bezhit
za mnoi, Kuda Kuda, Ya sprashu - "Where, where I ask" -which fits into the
meaning of the song ("My own shit chases me" - where the guy took a shit and
it ran out of the toilet and started to chase him, and scare people, but he
trained it to do funny tricks and jump and so he is now a millionaire and
has 20 villas) - it took me quite a while to translate it - my german sucks.
My question was more like - why would Stumpen sing in russian?

That all makes sense now :-)

I guess the better ways to write these words in Roman letters is:
Navoz (as opposed to Nawos)
Pamyot (as opposed to Pamjiot)

Cheers!

But, roman letters using ENGLISH pronounciation or GERMAN? I think that was
the problem :)
