21, 22, 23 [English translation]

And now you're 21, 22, 23

And you can't possibly know what you want yet.

and now you're 24, 25, 26

and you don't dance like you used to.

and you and your friends

You all have your studies

and you wait around,

For something to happen

do you even have any idea?

where exactly you are?

You're wasting your youth

Between pubs and shared flats

and now you're 21, 22, 23

And you can't possibly know what you want yet.

and now you're 24, 25, 26

and you don't dance like you used to.

and sometime you're melancholic

In the street lamp light

On the weekends you go party

and of course get yourself drunk

and you keep your dreams purposefully small

so that at the end you won't be disappointed.

and now you're 21, 22, 23

And you can't possibly know what you want yet.

and now you're 24, 25, 26

and you don't dance like you used to.

and you always say that none of it's on you

and order yourself another beer

and whenever I ask you what you want

you only ever say "I don't know. At least I'm not in my

mid-30s"

and now you're 21, 22, 23

And you can't possibly know what you want yet.

and now you're 24, 25, 26

and you don't dance like you used to.

and now you're 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29...
