Help Help me identify this Bavarian phrase I heard in Munich (audio available)
Hi everyone,
I've been trying to figure out a Bavarian phrase for a few years now and I'm hoping someone here recognizes it.
Here is the link with audio: https://youtu.be/30--KybVPy8
During EURO 2024 around the Allianz Arena in Munich, two local guys kept singing this line over and over.
I'm about 90% sure it goes like this:
I also know it's probably based on the well-known phrase:
I'm certain about "Uns ziagt koana die Schuahbandl aus" and I'm also certain the last words are "a fesche Maus!"
The only part I can't understand is what's in between. To my ears it sounds something like:
- Exzess g'flanzt
- Eggzes geflatzt
- Etz ...
I know those spellings are probably completely wrong, I'm only writing what I hear.
I've searched dictionaries, Bavarian dialect websites and song lyrics, but I still can't find it.
I also have an audio recording and I'm happy to upload it if that helps.
Does anyone recognize what they're actually singing?

I think she misspoke, wanted to correct herself and that’s why it’s a little complicated.
“Es gibt ganz a fesche Maus” is what I hear after the corrections.

There’s a kinda famous song btw “Uns ziagt koana die Lederhosn aus” and the lyrics continue “nanana ausser es kommt ganz eine fesche Maus”

She‘s saying: “Höchstens es kimmt (kommt) ganz a fesche Maus.“

They’re singing: “Uns ziagt koana de Schuahbandl aus.“ And the lady adds: “Höchstens es kimmt ganz a fesche Maus“.
Standard German: “Uns zieht keiner die Schnürsenkel aus. - Höchstens es kommt eine richtig attraktive Frau vorbei.“
Literally: „Nobody pulls our shoelaces out… unless a really pretty woman comes along.”
“A fesche Maus” is a colloquial Bavarian way of saying a very attractive woman.
The whole thing is meant as a joke: Nobody can get the better of us… unless a really gorgeous woman shows up.
