God, I dreamed there was an angel
Who could hear me through the wall
As I cried out like in Latin,
"This is so not life at all"
Help me out, out of this nightmare
Then I heard her silver call
She said "Just give it time, kid
I come to one and all"
She said give me that hand please
An itch you can't control
Let me teach you how to handle
All the sadness in your soul
Oh we'll work that silver magic
Then we'll aim it at the wall
She said love may make you blind, kid
But I wouldn't mind at all
ALL
It's the ***** of living (*****, just the *****)
Nothing but your hand (just the *****, yeah)
Just the ***** of living
As someone you can't stand
GEORG
See,each night it's like fantastic
Toss and turning without rest
'cause my days at the piano
With my teacher and her breasts
And the music's, like, the one thing
I can even get at all
And those breasts, I mean god
Please just let those apples fall
ALL
It's the ***** of living (*****, ah ah ah)
With nothing going on (nothing going on)
Just the ***** of living
Asking "What went wrong?"
Do they think we want this?
Oh, who knows?
ERNST
See, there's showering at gym class...
HANSCHEN
Bobby Mayler, he's the best
Looks so nasty in those khakis
ERNST
God, my whole life's like some test
OTTO
Then there's Marianna Wheelan
As if she'd return my call
HANSCHEN
It's like, just kiss some ass man
Then you can screw 'em all
MELCHIOR
It's the ***** of living (it's the ***** of living)
And living in your head (in your head)
It's the ***** of living
And sensing god is dead
ALL(MELCHIOR)
It's the ***** of living (you watch me, just watch me)
And trying to get ahead (I'm calling, and one day)
It's the ***** of living
MORITZ
Just getting out of bed
ALL(MELCHIOR)
It's the ***** of living, living, living (All will know)
Getting what you get (All will know)
Just the ***** of living
MELCHIOR
And knowing this is it
ALL
God, is this it?
This can't be it...
Oh god, what a *****.
