This is a revival attempt of the Fortnightly Topic Challenge.
Easter is coming, time to hide some Easter eggs. As you probably know programmers hide them in program code. This type of Easter eggs usually does something completely unrelated to the actual purpose of the affected software. Below you can see the prototype of such an Easter egg in Python, which is supposed to print the lyrics of a song. Of course it shouldn't be too obvious what the code is doing, therefore I used some completely meaningless groups of numbers and letters to represent the structure of the song. Each group would be translated to the actual song text using a dictionary located somewhere else. Unfortunately this dictionary got lost, the one below only includes some examples which don't occur in the song itself. I could of course recreate this dictionary from the song text, if I could only remember which song it was. I need your help to identify it.

For some reason syntax highlighting is disabled on Puzzling.SE. This version might be easier to read.
Your answer must contain the song title, the band name and optionally the album title. You don't need to recreate the dictionary, but you must explain why your answer is correct.
Hints (including the ones from the comments):
- I had the idea for this puzzle while watching the blu-ray of a concert which was performed a couple of years ago near a well known village in Germany.
- This song was probably never played by a mainstream radio station.
- The album where this song is from won a gold award in several European countries.
- If the hints don't seem to make sense, try to interpret them differently, use your imagination.
- Some say this band would change their female lead vocalist more often than their underwear.
- Hints found in the answers below are usually synonyms for words/phrases occurring in the song. In rare cases, where synonyms don't work, they contain a direct reference to the word in question.
23.4359,-109.4265and others look like latitude and longitude. Maybe the place at those locations contains a hint to what word goes there? $\endgroup$part1, callingpart2without doing anything means, there is only music(no words/just instrumental) going on over there. $\endgroup$
