This song is driving me mental

this is making me crazy. has anyone else heard this song?
Its like 12 on the charts here in australia and is a song sung in German by a little kid about snappy the crocidile.

Its so cute and catchy that it has been stuck in my head for the past two days.

all I want to know is what the song is about!! anyone know?

Yeah, I heard that song once...

...It could have been worse, I suppose.

It could have had the brown note, or been of specific frequencies that cause a standing wave in the ear canal or interference in the brain leading to an epileptic seizure.

Try the cornercrunch addy..man is that annoying..FRD got it into my head.. and hes been whistling it since..it wont go away!!! *goes mad and falls to the floor*

I can't believe it's on the dam charts! What ever happened to real music? Mind you, when I heard it I just stood in front of the telly like a zombie!

I can't say I've heard it.

Surely it can't be as bad as the crazy frog releasing a danced up techno remix single.

The only time I had heard it was when my bf sang it whilst we were on the phone, but the other morning I saw it on Video Hits, or Rage, or So Fresh, or something like that... it's cute... but not the best.

Cant believe it is the works of a 5 year old kid though

Schni-Schna-Schnappi, das kleine Krokodil I've known it for ages I'll translate it for you, Valura, having a busy day at work though so might not get to do it before tomorrow

YAY! you ledgend!

schnappi das kleine crocodil = snappy the small crocodile.

im too scared to download the song, cos then it shall be stuck, removing 'the girl from ipanema' which flynt, ant and ry so kindly put in there. and left there. and have not yet removed it.



cheers, pete

That's the first I've heard of it. Not sure if I wanna hear it, either, hehe. But the translation should be interesting to read.

1. Ich bin Schnappi, das kleine Krokodil.
Komm aus Ägypten, das liegt direkt am Nil.
Zuerst lag ich in einem Ei,
dann schni-,schna-,schnappte ich mich frei


I am Schnappi (= Snappy), the small crocodile
I come from Egypt, that's at the Nile.
First I lay in an egg
Then I snee-sna-snapped myself free

Refrain
Schni Schna Schnappi
Schnappi Schnappi Schnapp
Schni Schna Schnappi
Schnappi Schnappi Schnapp


Snee-Sna-Snappy
Snappy Snappy Snap
Snee-Sna-Snappy
Snappy Snappy Snap


For some strange reason THIS is the point where I'm starting to feel weird about translating a song that mostly consists of Schni Schna Schnappi, but nevermind, this website is for insane people anyways

2. Ich bin Schnappi, das kleine Krokodil,
hab scharfe Zähne, und davon ganz schön viel.
Ich schnapp mir was ich schnappen kann,
ja ich schnapp zu, weil ich das so gut kann.


I am Snappy, the small crocodile,
I have sharp teeth, and lots of them
I snap what I can snap
Yes I snap because I'm so good at it.



Snee-Sna-Snappy
Snappy Snappy Snap
Snee-Sna-Snappy
Snappy Snappy Snap

3. Ich bin Schnappi, das kleine Krokodil,
ich schnappe gern, das ist mein Lieblingsspiel.
Ich schleich mich an die Mama ran,
und zeig ihr wie ich schnappen kann


I am Snappy the small crocodile,
I like snapping, it's my favourite game
I sneak up to my mum
and show her how I can snap.



Snee-Sna-Snappy
Snappy Snappy Snap
Snee-Sna-Snappy
Snappy Snappy Snap

4. Ich bin Schnappi, das kleine Krokodil,
und vom Schnappen, da krieg ich nicht zu viel.
Ich beiß dem Papi kurz ins Bein,
und dann, dann schlaf ich einfach ein.


I am Snappy the small crocodile
And I can't get enough of snapping
I bite into daddy's leg for a bit
and then, then I simply fall asleep



Snee-Sna-Snappy etc...

Thats almost as annoying as the Crazy Frog song thats polluting the airwaves in the UK.

what a stupid pointless song.
the writer could have atleast been more creative!!

Whats the cornercrunch song?
Yeah that does seem annoying, thank god I can't hear it. The lyrics are weird tho.
Japanese songs always translate funny into english. Crazy stuff.

if you mean the muller ad then its
a cover by nina simone. aint got no/ i got life
I love that tune

B x

ive heard people siniging it but never heard it in real life...a link?

to nina simone?

Its very annoying.. watch more Tv.. youll find it

I crack up when i sore it on video hits thanks for letting me what the song was about.

its a very annoying song but i just cant help but watch it when it omes on tv....
its like a little kid....cut yet irritating

puk...letting you know what its about so you realize that the little boy probably made it up due to the fact you can learn the lyrics of by heart in a few seconds...schee-schna-schnappi and there we have it

Iv got a more annoying song ... here

lol thats scary! dont let any young children see it
