I need to memorize the lyrics to 99 Red Balloons today and figure out how to get a bunch of helium-fillled red balloons by 5 tomorrow when I have ZERO free time.
Just pretend you're singing the German version and sing "blah blah blah" instead of the lyrics.

It's for a karaoke competition so the lyrics are actually displayed on a monitor but there's so much more time for showboating if you learn the actual lyrics! And showboating is what wins prizes!!!
I thought I might have to do the song in German which would have been funnier but much more stressful.
Luftbalons!
That's the only word I can ever catch in the German version, but I sing it hard.
Luftbalons!
I watched a documentary on Leni Riefenstahl once. At once point she talks about using Luftballons to carry a camera. My friends and I all turned to each other, "Wait, how many luftballons?"
That's the only word I can ever catch in the German version, but I sing it hard.
that and "Captain Kirk"!!

Spinach and egg souffle: I googled the song - this amused me:
VH1 Classic, an American cable television station, ran a charity event for Hurricane Katrina relief in 2006. Viewers who made donations were allowed to choose which music videos the station would play. One viewer donated $35,000 for the right to program an entire hour and requested continuous play of Nena's "99 Luftballons" and "99 Red Balloons" videos for an entire hour. The station broadcasted the videos as requested from 2:00 to 3:00 p.m. EST on March 26, 2006[5].
I am trapped in the basement. It's freezing down here, although not quite as smelly as yesterday. I am alone in a room. My keycard no longer works in the elevator. Hate. Hate. Hate.
If I had $35,000 right now, that's... well okay that's not exactly what I'd do, but it's pretty high up on the list.
