Intro by Malcolm Mooney:

DON’T FEEL SORRY FOR YOURSELF
THE GRAY MAN SAID
YOU COULD BE MOST ANYONE THAT’S
BEEN MIS-LEAD

TRY YOUR DAMNDEST FOR ENEMY AND FRIEND
THIS COULD BE THE BEGINNING OR THE END.

CAST YOUR LOVE ON ENEMY AND FRIEND
FOR YOUR SPIRIT
WILL REALIZE THAT THERE’S NO END

TELL THE WORLD ABOUT HOW WE CAN
START AGAIN

LOVE CAN REALIZE LOVE
BUT HATE CREATES SEAS OF OVERHEATED WATERS

UPSETS YOUR UNBORN SONS AND DAUGHTERS

THE PLANET IS A LIVING ORGAN
SO IN GERMAN WO IST DAS MORGAN

IF THE PATH DOES NOT INCLUDE DOES NOT ELUDE THE
TOUCH OF…
DON’T FEEL SORRY FOR YOURSELF
THE GRAY MAN SAID
YOU COULD BE MOST ANYONE THAT’S BEEN MISLEAD
TRY YOUR DAMDEST FOR ANY MAN, WOMAN FRIEND
THIS COULD BE THE BEGINNING OR THE END.

START THE MUSIC…

Ich schtiig usem Fenschter
Alli andre mached wiiter
Schtiig usem Fenschter
Alli andre schpiled wiiter
Ha Luscht uf Brate, Luscht uf Bier
Ha Luscht zum Weggoh, aber ich cha nid zu dir

Es goht absi
Mann, ich mo wiiter, Mann, ich mo wiiter, Mann
Es goht absi
Immer moni wiiter, Mann, moni wiiter, Mann
Zum Wirt i dem Kaff, Broote und Bier
Ich mach etz mol da, ich cha nid zu dir

Dänn alls wider zrugg
Wiiter mache
Dänn alls wider zrugg
Wiiter go mache
Ich ghör scho vo wiit, wes gliich Riff no rollt
Und mis Härz schloht im Takt, s isch us Chatzegold

Du machschs recht
Wa machsch du
Du machschs recht
Wa machsch du
Liebi isch än Drumbeat 21 Schtund am Tag
Liebi isch än Herzschlag 24 Schtund am Tag
Ich würd gern säge, da isch nu än Illusion
Und Liebi isch nu d Uusschüttig vonä paar Hormon, aber:
Du machschs recht
Wa machsch du
Du machschs recht
Wa machsch du
Liebi isch än Herzschlag 24 Schtund am Tag
