Verschieden [English translation]

We're so fundamentally different

You want to climb ever higher, I just want out

hmmmm

We're so fundamentally different

It seems you want more than you give, I'm more than content

What's left to us of life?

We've lost our purpose

Some languages have disappeared forever

I on the contrary feel like I've been born again

You say, my mind is confused and I'm lost again

You're just committed to the system

And I'm cut out to break out

Interest and compound interest have had their day

The CDU has had its day

The SPD¹ has had its day

They are kindly requested to clear out their offices

Interest and compound interest have had their day

The USA has had its day

Barack Obama has had his day

They are kindly requested to clear out their offices

Why don't you contribute to solving the problem?

Why do you always have to be part of the problem?

How many great liars assess the problem

They minimize the problem

They know that they are the problem

But they don't admit it to themselves

We're so fundamentally different

You want to climb ever higher, I just want out

We're so fundamentally different

It seems you want more than you give, I'm more than content

Interest and compound interest have had their day

The CDU has had its day

Angela Merkel² has had her day

They are kindly requested to clear out their offices

Interest and compound interest have had their day

The USA has had its day

Barack Obama has had his day

They are kindly requested to clear out their offices
