(Hinkel / Freudenthaler). . Mother's waiting in the kitchen. The elephant's waiting in the zoo. The teacher's waiting in the classroom. And I am waiting here for you.
(Hinkel / Freudenthaler). . The waitress is cleaning the bar. It's two in the morning. She offers some coffee to me. Turns the radio on. The caster is selling his voice to the night.
Look up now - there's no need to be ashamed. You don't have to wear it - take it off. Look up now - and don't pretend. In the limelight you could take another bow.
(Hinkel / Freudenthaler). . Do you have a problem?. Do you wanna whine?. Do you feel the need for a little more time?. Do you think about a change of scene?.
The parridge's been good. The marmalade too. I take another slice of bread. The bacon is hot but I don't mind. Too long I boiled the egg. I'm still a little tired, my bones are weak.
Dan is drinking coffee. Mary's drinking tea. Betty's having breakfast. in the plastic surgery. Some say she's a beauty. Some may say she's mad. But she doesn't care what the people say.

(Hinkel / Freudenthaler). . Whenever I buy a lighter in the store. You take it away. I cannot find the ashtray anymore. Did you take it away?. Smoking is not good for me.
