Hund [English translation]

Life is a dog (1)

Today you feel fit as a fiddle

But tomorrow comes the cancer diagnoses

Life is a dog

Yes, life is a dog

Yes, life is a dog

You were kind and social

And always nice and loyal

But there was the AIDS scandal

And there was also that one time...

Because life is a dog

yeah yeah life is a dog

You have lived like a saint

Went to bed early rather than late

Now you have smoker's leg and lung cancer (2)

Know one knows how such a thing goes.

Because life is a dog

Yes life is a dog

Life is a dog

Yeah yeah life is a dog

Life is a dog

Ohhh life is a dog

You have smoked and drank heavily

And met with women who were strangers

You are now 98 years old

and no end in sight

because life is a dog

Yeaaah life is a dog

Life is a dog

oh oh life is a dog

Life is a dog

Life is a dog

Life is a dog

Sometimes black, sometimes white, sometimes mixed

It barks it bites, it eats it shites

And sometimes grinds on your leg

Oh no, life is no pig

No, life is a dog

Life is a dog.
