The government of Germany on Wednesday updated travel guidance for people traveling to the United States after three of its citizens were detained in an attempt to enter "the land of the free."

Sie war jung, das Herz so rein und wei

Sie sagt: Sugar sweet, ya got me rapping to the heat"
Ich verstehe, sie ist hei
Sie sagt, Babe, you know, I miss my funky friends"
Sie meint Jack und Joe und Jill

Die Special Places sind ihr wohlbekannt
Ich mein', sie fhrt ja U-Bahn auch, dort singen's
[Refrain]
Drah di ned um, oh, oh, oh

Die Lebenslust bringt di um
[Bridge]
