Raum der Zeit [English translation]

I'm gay, I'm Jewish

and a communist to boot!

I'm black, handicapped

But I'm just as human as you

I'm highly intelligent

And as dumb as a pickled cabbage

I'm good-looking, I'm ugly,

I'm fat and well-built

There's nothing-

Nothing that makes you better than me

Because you've got your faults too,

Faults, just like me

And there's nothing wrong with faults,

They belong to you and me,

And if you can't hack it at something,

No one can change it for you.

You are one of billions

And you've got to accept that

You're one of billions of asses in the world

Your values, your norms,

Ethics and laws

Are expendable and replaceable-

Superfluous gossip

Valid today, void tomorrow

The day after completely reversed

What's right or important here

Is in other places without worth

Your gods, your churches,

Beliefs, prayers, religion

Holy today, sacrilege tomorrow

And the next day utter scorn

And the money and the fame

And the immortality

Are on closer observation-to no avail1

You are not the center of the universe

You are just an ass in a space of time

AETC TCAG- AET2

You are not the center of the universe

You are just an ass in a space of time

Fuck you!
