You’re not alone. Always feel sorry for the guy that has to explain his joke. Been there, done that...

Well, neither do I, but "Die" auf Deutsch is, of course, the feminine (or plural) definite article (pronounced "dee" auf Englisch), so I am guessing it could mean "the shoes" (die Schuhe)
in hell would, or at least could, mean "in light" (in a light colo(u)r?)...
I did minor in German, but that's a long time ago now
