Timezeit Lyrics

By a wiser man he was told
Time is your enemy as you get old
Now faced with his mortality
He thought: "I'll live my life intensely!"

I'll be no man of lesser will
Top every mountain, cross every hill
I'll live ten days to your one
And will not rest 'til all prices won

Zeit verfliegt, Zeit verrinnt,
Vergiß niemals, Du wirst alt mein Kind

To seize all time is my secret
I'll posess what you'll never get

I will do everything, nothing's too much
Every good looking thing I will touch
All world wonders I will see
Only sleep five hours ? that's the key

Zeit verfliegt, Zeit verrinnt,
Vergiß niemals, Du wirst alt mein Kind

He worked like hell everyday
Said: "When I die I'll sleep anway!"
Died in his prime, acted in haste
The beauty of life he didn't taste

Zeit verfliegt, Zeit verrinnt,
Vergiß niemals, Du wirst alt mein Kind
