I am myself an absolute beginner in Haskell and Functional Thinking so I hope to get some constructive feedback on my mental image of this situation.

When you write: "From the perspective of the programm, you just call a function without argument that returns a string"

you veer close to the lousy thinking that Everything is a Function. Conal Elliott did the delousing here:

Have a read, and if you're not convinced, come back here and ask for more help.
