Little Song

This little song is for all us little people
Making our lives, although we ask: Why & for what?
Running night and day for a little bit of nothing
Just for some dimes and some dinner maybe some love

For us grown-ups, who wan't to be a little
Not that much - but yes a little bit above
Us wise and strong, experienced but brittle
Us dumb and weak, so serious, no laugh

This little song is always going on
The repetition of itself makes it so strong
It shows us clearly that we just do know a little
Although we're wise, won't laugh - that makes it wrong

We all do know, life's too short - and that's a pity
So every day we're heading for some more
And yes we're brave and straight ahead but miss the middle
We lose our track - so serious, so bored

This little song might teach us once again
Future starts now but past will never end
And to change our little life little by little
We have to act without the fear "we might regret"

So let us sing although it's just a pretty little
A pretty little song that makes us feel again
We might be strong and sometimes seriously happy
Just with a smile remembering this song

La la la lalalala lalala
La la la la la la la la la lala
La la la la la lalalalala
Show me your smile remembering this little song
