Discover the story of the song > Pädagogen – Das Lumpenpack

The lyrics of the song "Pädagogen" express the protagonist's disappointment with his life because all of his friends are educators (Pädagogen), while he would rather have friends who are skilled in practical tasks like fixing pipes (Monteur). He talks about how his educator friends are not very useful when it comes to fixing things, but they are good at discussing and debating. He wishes he had friends who were engineers, craftsmen, or doctors instead. The protagonist is not angry with his friends, but he just wishes they were more helpful in practical situations.
