"Herr Ober zwei Mokka / Hey, Waiter - Two Mochas" by Oskar Joost

This was a popular 'Cafe Culture' song from 1930 by Oskar Joost. It remained popular even throughout WWII, though it was relegated to verboten/forbidden status by the Nazis. One would've only encountered it in that period by attending a secret club where Jazz was played from records by Swing Kids.

It was quite popular at the time, resulting in a number of version by Ben Berlin with Luigi Bernauer, Julian Fuchs, Eddy Wallis Orchester, Theo Mackeben and John Morris. Even today it is still a nostalgic song that often gets covered. Modern retro bands like Bratislava Hot Serenaders as well as Max Raabe & Palast Orchester have repopularized the tune, but usually leave off the later verses.

Hey, Waiter - two mochas,

for baby and for me,

and a piece of crumb cake too

Haha

 

My heart is loose today,

for baby and me

So, I will also try it today

 

Hey, Waiter - two mochas,

for baby and for me,

and for this a kiss from baby.

 

Then I can save the sugar

for I am a poor man,

Waiter, and that's the end.

 

So in the first days of springtime in May

Love and nature go hand in hand

The girls are good, beating the finches

a short spring is back in the country.

And then, if a young man waits for

each girl before he can kiss them

then it is high time that he takes a brisk walk

because in the end he stands there and does nothing.

 

Who in the spring has no bride

Also gets no woman in the fall

If you do not know in the spring

Yes, is not more clever in the fall.

 

Who in the spring has no bride

when everyone only dreams of kissing

and then passes love by in May

Yes, then he is sorry.

Spring

Herr Ober zwei Mokka,

für Baby und für mich,

dazu ein Stückchen Streuselkuchen

haha

Mein Herz ist heut locker,

für Baby und für mich

darum will ich’s heute auch versuchen

Herr Ober zwei Mokka,

für Baby und für mich,

dazu von Baby einen Kuss.

Dann spare ich den Zucker

Ich bin ein armer Schlucker,

Herr Ober und dann ist Schluß.

Im Mai so in den ersten Frühlingstagen

gehen Liebe und Natur gern Hand in Hand

die Mädchen werden gut die Finken schlagen
kurz der Frühling ist wieder im Land.

Und wenn sich dann ein Jüngling für nen Mann hält

jedes Mädchen macht vor ihm nen Knicks

dann wird es höchste Zeit dass er sich ranhält

denn zum Schluss steht er da und hat nichts.

Wer im Frühling keine Braut hat

der bekommt auch im Herbst keine Frau

wer im Frühling nicht Bescheid weiß

ja der wird auch im Herbst nicht mehr schlau.

Wer im Frühling keine Braut hat

wo doch jeder vom Küssen nur träumt

und der geht dann im Mai an der Liebe vorbei

ja dann tut er mir Leid.

Frühling

Zara McFarlane's "Woman In The Olive Groves" lyrics

This is what I think are the lyrics for Zara McFarlane's song "Woman In The Olive Groves" (2014).

~~~

"Woman in the olive groves
what brings you here?
Woman in the olive groves
what brings you here?
Looking so royal in your flesh
in your bright colored dress
stood in the haze of the light
Peering outside from behind
the crooked branches that frame
your soft and smooth curve in the night

Woman in the olive groves
can you hear me?
Woman in the olive groves
can you hear me?
Don't be too free in your ways
do you need to hide out today
don't let the air turn off your scheme
And taste those good for nothings
stealing the delicate scent of innocence
that seeps within

Woman in the olive groves
I can see you
Woman in the olive groves
I could be you
Had I no money to spare
It could be me standing there
I could be floating my skin
Not knowing where to begin
along a lonely stretch of unhappiness
beckoning

Woman in the olive groves
let the moon hear your prayers
Woman in the olive groves
Laisser plume ester
(Appearing not to come out unscathed)"
