"Ein Crop Duster Can Race" (aka "Franz's Song") is a song recorded by Dave Wittenberg, used in the Planes soundtrack. It is also an exclusive bonus feature on the film's Blu-ray Disc and Digital HD, as it was deleted from the final film. It is sung by Franz to encourage Dusty Crophopper that even as a crop duster, he can still race.

Lyrics[]

[Speech]
Klaus, may I have a B flat, please?
(brass instruments start to play)
Yeah, yeah, that's it

Fritzy ist ein postal truck
(Postal truck!)
Postal truck!
He brings the mails through mud and muck
But add a blade and what do you know?
The postal truck can plow the snow!

(Sing ja, ja, ja!)
If a postal truck can plow the snow,
Then a crop duster can race

Helga is a floating plane
(Floating plane!)
Floating plane!
She can fly in sun und rain
But her big pontoons conveniently
Let her float like a boat on the big blue sea

(Sing ja, ja, ja!)
If a floating plane can float in the sea,
And a postal truck can plow the snow,
Then a crop duster can race

I am just a teensy car
(Teensy car!)
A weensy car
I cannot go fast or far,
But add some wings and who am I?
Von Fliegenhozen in the sky!

(Sing ja, ja, ja!)
If a teensy car can fly in the sky,
And a floating plane can float in the sea,
And a postal truck can plow the snow,
Then a crop duster can race

And maybe win first place
Ja!

Trivia[]

  • The line "Klaus, may I have a B flat, please?" appears to have different recordings on the Planes soundtrack and Blu-ray animation. Also, the singing seems to sound slower on the soundtrack version.
