1. Strophe  I've got/given you more than you can take (schuap - schub schuap)
(I) had enough, for heaven' sake! (buuuapbuap)
You didn't tell me what you see (what you see)
You/But put me down to misery (oh oh no)

2. Strophe I put flowers on your way (on your way)
And you told me where to stay (where to stay)
(You) chose the chapel where we go (where you go - where you go)
I did all/everything for you, you know (I just don't know)

Refrain But don't you think I am a fool? + (am a fool, am a fool)
Just a stupid man, and a cruel?!
Feel only good where dollars flow (uuuuuhhh)
where life is just a big, old show

Solo Piano ...

3. Strophe Time has gone and love has flown (ahaa - ahaaaa)
Though you were there I feel alone (all alone)
Never mind, later, I'll feel allright (yes that's right)
I'm certainly not going on with this fight (bängboombäng)

 
Solo Guitar ...

Refrain But don't you think I am a fool? + (am a fool, am a fool)

Just a stupid man, and a cruel?!
Feel only good where dollars flow
and where life is just a big, old show

Refrain But don't you think I am a fool?

Just a stupid man and a cruel?!
Feel only good where dollars flow
where life is just a big, poor show
