In German, "danke schön" is equivalent to the English "thank you very much". It literally means "pretty thanks", similar to the English "pretty please." The polite response is "bitte schön," which translates roughly and literally to "you're very welcome" and "pretty please" respectively. In English, the German letter "ö" can also be written as "oe" when no ö key is available.
The title is mispronounced in the song and in general the way it is spoken in English. The German word schön, roughly rhymes with the English word "earn" if pronounced non-rhotally. There is no precise equivalent phoneme in English.
