Heh, I remember learning some German just to understand their lyrics, some years ago.

Funniest one I remember is, in Computerwelt, Flensburg und das BKA / Haben unsere Daten da... where BKA is the federal German police and Flensburg is the city where they held some data about people (or still do, I don't know).

The agency collecting points for bad driving is located in Flensburg.

Having "Punkte in Flensburg" thus means one got caught driving too fast, under the influence or over a red light etc.

If you collect too many points you lose your drivers license and have to do a test and psychological exam to get it back.

This test usually called the "Idiotentest" because you drive like an idiot and you (deservedly) get treated like an idiot by the agency.

The whole affair is really annoying, expensive and takes quite some time.

If you fail the psychological exam (they find out you are an alcoholic for examle) you might never get the license back.
