Schnitzelbank
The "Schnitzelbank" is a simple song, popular most with Americans of German descent.
== German meaning ==
''Schnitzelbank'' literally means "scrap bench" or "chip bench" (from ''Schnitzel'' "scraps / clips / cuttings (from carving)" or the colloquial verb ''schnitzeln'' "to make scraps" or "to carve" and ''Bank'' "bench"); like the ''Bank'', it is feminine and takes the article "die". It is a woodworking tool used in Germany prior to the industrial revolution. It was in regular use in colonial New England, and in the Appalachian region until early in the 20th century; it is still in use by specialist artisans today. In America it is known as a shaving horse. It uses the mechanical advantage of a foot-operated lever to securely clamp the object to be carved. The shaving horse is used in combination with the drawknife or spokeshave to cut down green or seasoned wood, to accomplish jobs such as handling an ax; creating wooden rakes, hay forks, walking sticks, etc. The shaving horse was used by various trades, from farmer to basketmaker and wheelwright.
A ''Schnitzelbank'' is also a short rhyming verse or song with humorous content, often but not always sung with instrumental accompaniment. Each verse in a ''Schnitzelbank'' introduces a topic and ends with a comedic twist. This meaning of the word is mainly used in Switzerland and southwestern Germany; it is masculine and takes the article "der". It is a main element of the Fasnacht celebrations in the city of Basel, where it is also written ''Schnitzelbangg''. ''Schnitzelbänke'' (pl.) are also sung at weddings and other festivities by the ''Schitzelbänkler'', a single person or small group. Often the ''Schnitzelbänkler'' will display posters called ''Helgen'' during some verses that depict the topic but do not give away the joke.〔Page „(Schnitzelbank (Bänkelsang) )“.
