This is a Japanese tongue twister (hayakuchi kotoba) meaning "The adjacent (tonari) customer (kyaku) eats (kuu) persimmons (kaki) often (yoku)."
- at the end of track 4: Zes-en-Zestig-Sinaas-Appel-Schillen
This is again Dutch and means "66 (zesenzestig) orange (sinaasappel) peels (schillen)."
- at the end of track 5: Hottentotten-Tenten-Tentoonstellingen
Dutch tongue twister meaning "(an) exhibition of tents made by the Hottentots."
- at the end of track 6: Chikushō, nante hidee sandoicchi da
Japanese meaning "Damn (chikushō)! How awful (hidee) this sandwich (sandoicchi) is!"
