Schaden means damage, and Freude means pleasure. The combination is oh so sweet at times.

Sayonara, adios, auf wiedersehen, farewell
This song is "Marty's Folly" -- play it in your prison cell.
You overcharged your victims because your ethics smell
Willkommen, bienvenue -- welcome seven years of living hell.
