Poem - something is wrong when the toilet will not shut off

1.

something is wrong when the toilet will not shut off
something is wrong when the toilet roars like a lion

2.

etwas ist unrecht wenn die toilette nicht etwas ist
unrecht abstellt wenn die toilette wie ein löwe brüllt

3.

qualcosa è torto quando la toletta non spegnerà
qualcosa è torto quando la toletta rugge come un leone

4.

algo é erro quando o toalete não cortará algo é erro
quando o toalete ruje como um leão

5.

что-то неправда когда туалет не отключит что-то
неправда когда туалет взревет как львев

6.

기술을 가진 이 생활의 신비는 신비 결코 정지하지 않
을 것이다

this is real. i like how the different languages suggest that it is universal, just like the swear words said when trying to fix that 'something wrong.' nice 'n, cm.
