Yes it is Chrissi! Yes it is. And thank you again so much for taking the time to help me! I don't know where it came from. Mom and Dad travelled to Germany a few years before Mom died.

The f*ck off part on the lid is also a wordplay. Literally, it says "pull [the] string", which is colloquial and means f*ck off, but of course in this case, it is (also) meant literally, for people to pull the string. ;D

The chorus of the song sounds like he's singing, "Je suis un Toy Boy...je suis un Toy Boy..."
