Tausend Jahre sind ein Tag
Udo Jürgens
A Thousand Years is a Day
Do you know how many stars are
And where the rivers go
Tell me why the rain falls
Where is the end of this world
What was here a thousand years ago
Why can wheels drive
Are clouds faster than the wind
So many questions a child has
Oh child, come on, stop asking questions
You're still too small for that
You are not ready yet
There's still time
What is time
What is time
What is time
What is time
A moment
An hourly strike
A thousand years are a day
How does man become insatiable
Whoever has everything gets a discount
And where did the greed for money come from
How does hunger come into the world
Why is someone suspected
Just because he thinks
Are you still free if you don't dare
Yes, what a young person asks
Hey young people what is this
And first of all, do something
You will also become smart again
Time brings
What is time
What is time
What is time
What is time
A moment
An hourly strike
A thousand years are a day
Is this world still allowed
The earth will soon be plundered
The water dead the land defoliated
The sky is hermetically sealed
The beautiful lie of goodwill
The pretty game from Overkill
And when do you arm the weapons
If I may ask
That's how it will be
And who will ever forgive us
I ask you while you are
For you are the time
What is time
What is time
What is time
What is time
A moment, a stroke of the hour
A thousand years are a day
na, na, na na, na, na na, na, na
Is this world still allowed
The earth will soon be plundered
The water dead the land defoliated
The sky is hermetically sealed
The beautiful lie of goodwill
The pretty game from Overkill
And when do you arm the weapons
If I may ask
That's how it will be damned
And who will ever forgive us
I beg you to ask while you are
You are the time
What is time
What is time
What is time
What is time
A moment
An hourly strike
A thousand years are a day
na, na, na na, na, na na, na, na
