Trivia
Working always on a freelance basis, in the end he produced approximately 3,000 song lyrics, set to music by around 200 composers. Inevitably plenty of them were "bread and butter" texts, written because he needed the money, but his overall output also included many well known hits, performed by East Germany's new generation of popular singers.
