Watching a youtube footage of a Van Gaal speech at a Bayern victory celebration, to which Antonio Pulisao linked on p.12 of the Arsenal FA Cup thread, introduced me to the Bayern rock song "Stern des Suedens".

It includes the lyric "ja so war es, und so ist es, und so wird es immer sein".
That has obvious echoes of the briefer "so war es und so wird es immer sein" which appears in Rammstein's typically grim and gruesome song "Rosenrot".

I assume FC Bayern weren't seeking to associate themselves with the dark and disturbing Berlin band, so I was wondering if the lyric echoes some well-known German poem or perhaps a common German proverb/saying. Any insights welcome. A Google search of that Rosenrot lyric seems to be entirely dominated by Rosenrot references.
