"a random train of thought"
 
   "Glockenspiel", the musical instrument, comes from the German nouns Glocken (bells) and Spiel (play). Spiel also means "game".

This leads me inescapably to the mental image of a near-future Euro-cyberpunk setting in which German-speaking punks' name for a gunfight is das Glockenspiel—the Game of Glocks.
