This is the story about a woman, Mrs. Parat
She makes even slaves seem lazy
She preens and she tidies and she cleans almost constantly
In order to not mess it up, nobody is invited home
And when her friends call, "Come on, go out with us!"
She sighs and responds: "Sure, that would be fun."
But I don't have time today
No, I don't even have a little time today
We can try next week or something
Because I don't even have a little time today
Then came the day when she met the man in her life
But marriage had to wait because she didn't have time
And when it was time to give birth to their kids
She called her midwife and said "I'm in terrible pain
Our love child is welcome, without a doubt
But if I play it safe, tell me, can I wait a little bit?"
But I don't have time today
No, I don't even have a little time today
We can try next week or something
Because I don't even have a little time today
But the child came into world, grew up and became a man
He called late at night and asked: "Mom, help me if you can.
Everything's gone to hell,
And the cops are after me, I've done a lot of stupid things"
She replied, "Oh, dear, of course I'll support you.
Otherwise this will be the death of you."
But I don't have time today
No, I don't even have a little time today
We can try next week or something
Because I don't even have a little time today
Time passed, she's now living as a lonely retiree
One stormy night, she heard someone outside her door, who's there?
She opens the door, sees Death has come knocking
He hisses: "Your time is up, it's time to go."
She said: "I haven't cleaned enough today
And what will everyone say if I leave it as it is and die?"
But I don't have time today
No, I don't even have a little time today
We can try next week or something
Because I don't even have a little time today
