No time to stand and stare
No time to stand beneath the boughs
And stare as long as sheep or cows.
No time to see, in broad daylight,
Streams full of stars, like skies at night.
Make less interesting
And stare as long as sheep or cows.
No time to see, in broad daylight,
Streams full of stars, like skies at night.
Make less interesting

You ditch your life to stay alive
Don't matter if you're rich and strong
Don't matter if you're weak
Don't matter if you write a song
The nightingales repeat
Don't matter if it's nine to five
Or timeless and unique
You ditch your life to stay alive
A thousand kisses deep
Make less interesting
Don't matter if you're weak
Don't matter if you write a song
The nightingales repeat
Don't matter if it's nine to five
Or timeless and unique
You ditch your life to stay alive
A thousand kisses deep
Make less interesting

In love with every woman
I'm angry with the angel
Who pinched me on the thigh
And made me fall in love
With every woman passing by
Make less interesting
Who pinched me on the thigh
And made me fall in love
With every woman passing by
Make less interesting
