The lyrics were written by Nina Hagen in 1976, even before she left the GDR, and are about an East German who watches West German television. I think it's one of the best-known songs about TV in Germany.

I was familiar with most of the songs in this thread, even the ones I didn't post, but I didn't know this one. Thanks for posting it.
