Erster Teil von den guten alten COCKSPARRER, der zweite Teil dann von mir.

lyrics

BECAUSE

Because you're young, sharp as a knife
You need that buzz to come alive
Out on the edge, out on the town
You ain't got time to settle down
You're always sure, you're always right
You see it all in black and white
You never listen to anyone
Because you're young

Because you're young, you're torn between
A world of hate and a world of dreams
So much to lose, so much to gain
So much to fight for, so much to change
You don't look back, you don't look down
You gotta turn everything around
You live your life like a loaded gun
Because you're young

Stop talking back, get off the phone
You're late again, you missed the last bus home
This ain't the way you wanna live
I know something's got to give
You're always sure, you're always right
You see it all in black and white
You never listen to anyone
Because you're young

Du bist jung, bist einfach da,
du brauchst den Kick und die Gefahr,
gehst auf die Straße, deine Wut ist groß,
da steh'n die Bullen, einfach mal drauf los.
Du bist im Recht weil du weißt,
dass dich die ganze Welt bescheißt,
lässt dir nichts sagen, laberst nicht viel rum,
denn du bist jung...
Und ich steh hier, sing dieses Lied,
ich seh ja auch, was so geschieht,
nur Vollidioten, auf der Welt,
die haben alle einen Knall und machen nicht was mir gefällt...
dusagst „wie peinlich! Du wirst verlier'n!
Du musst doch differenzier'n!!“
Ich muss gar nix, das lässt mich kalt,
denn ich bin alt!
