The trees grow stem above
Waters flow upstream
Flowers wither in the springs
Waiting for autumn in vain
the birds fly south
away from spring's paw
Development goes ass first
No one takes notice
Oil burns, black coal smokes
to split atomic nuclei
Science develops growing wisdom
The well-being increases
Goods, more goods for me
at least more than for those others
And development develops ass first
more unfeeling
Development develops ass first
No one notices anything wrong
Development goes ass first
Fed up in wealth
Nothing is enough for us anymore
More more more and more
There's a human being to the top of your hat1
Development goes ass first
