MORITZ
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, and the 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 b**h of living (b**h, just the b**h)
Nothing but your hand (Just the b**h, yeah)
Just the b**h of living
As someone you can't stand
GEORG
See, each night, it's like, fantastic—tossing, turning, without rest
Cause my day's 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 b**h of living (b**h, ah ah ah)
With nothing going on (Nothing going on)
Just the b**h of living
Asking, "What went wrong?"
Do they think we want this?
Oh, who knows?
ERNST
It's even, there's showering at gym cla**
HANSCHEN
Bobby Maler, 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 a**, man
Then you can screw 'em all (All...)
MELCHIOR
It's the b**h of living (It's the b**h of living)
And living in your head (In your head)
It's the b**h of living
And sensing God is dead
MORITZ & BOYS (MELCHIOR)
It's the b**h of living (You watch me, just watch me)
And trying to get ahead (I'm calling, and one day)
It's the b**h of living
Just gettin' out of bed
It's the b**h of living, living, living (All will know)
Getting what you get (All will know)
Just the b**h of living (And knowing this is it)
ALL
God, is this it?
This can't be it
Oh God, what a b**h!
