1 –
\nYou are thrown to life screaming and bloody,
\nLife is very sweet, no memories until you’re three.
\nThen you go to school and think that you are a big boy,
\nBut you grow taller and then you change your kinda toy. <\/p>\n
2 –
\nYou think you’re too young, and you wait to be eighteen,
\nYou’ll do all what you want, that’s great, (well) you know what I mean.
\nYou already imagine all what you’ll be able to do.
\nBut one day, you wake up and you’re already twenty-two.<\/p>\n
3 –
\nYou plan to have a good job to get all you need before thirty,
\nGot a wife, two kids, a big house, two cars and pretty doggie.
\nThe working life is boring, welcome to the everyday routine,
\nYou’re running on \u00ab\u00a0e\u00a0\u00bb, man, don’t look back it’s the forties spleen.<\/p>\n
4 –
\nYou wait for your kids to fly solo and set you free, don’t you ?
\nWhen fifty, you’ll be able to do what you always wanted to.
\nIn those days of nostalgic memory, you hope to be ageless,
\nBut you’re sixty now, you can’t hide it, it’s written on your face.<\/p>\n
5 –
\nYou want to be a retired person now, to travel the world around,
\nYou think you have your life ahead, (but) are you sure to be so strong.
\nCoz’ time is still moving fast, and before long you’ll become ill.
\nYou own your own zimmer, centenary, and you’re waiting for you pill.<\/p>\n
Refrain –
\nRun boy, run ! Run boy, run !
\nLife goes faster every day.
\nRun boy, run ! Run boy, run !
\nIt won’t slow down anyway.
\nYou speed right into the wall,
\n(There will be) no escape at all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
