What is Joe Zawinul saying here? Although he explains it in Standard German, later he seems to be saying something slightly different. I know he replaces the vowels, but it still doesn’t make sense to me.

    You want to know what he’s saying when he mumbles the sentence with every vowel replaced by “A” around 2:22 right?
