lyrics

You don't need to say, I'm having trouble to obey
So fuck your cabaret, I'm gonna leave this place someday
Everyday I deal with crap which sometimes makes me almost snap
There are times I wished I'd fled but then I held the fort instead
But things are getting worse -- day by day
I need to leave right now, gonna get away somehow
Of travelling 'round the world I dream, hope to re-gain self-esteem
Being free and independent - this will be my theme

In the belly of the iron serpent, travelling far north
I'm encountering some fine men - who seem to need support
A new star they seek they tell, the old one he must excel
In their travelling hotel, they promised he could dwell
And things are working out - they hired me
»I won't disappoint - that you will see«
My new journey has begun, my old life is finally done
I'm the happiest bonobo and with joy I'm overrun

In what hell I have wound up, my excitement has been crushed
A shithole of grande degree, behind iron bars I'm stuck
I am forced to fulfil tasks, mankind's cruelty's unmasked
I demand to disappear, why do all the humans laugh
The life I dreamt to have -- that's passé
And again I get the urge - to break-away
Tell me how do I escape? Why won‘t you set me free?
I really hate my life - Fuck you, destiny!
