Here is another great Lyric of Bernd Harmsen. As with the other songs it is a pleasure to read them and form the music in the head.
Story behind the song
It´s like an generation conflict. The young against the old.
Lyrics
no future - no past
Intro:
you say that your life's a mess
I say that life's a game
you say I don't have a clue
I say that's all the same
Refrain 1:
if you're the young man with no future
I'm the old man with no past
if you do not believe me
then we both are badly cast
Verse:
you say you've had such high hopes
but the outlook is quite bleak
I say that's a point of view
worthwhile only for the meek
Refrain:
if you're the young man with no future
I'm the old man with no past
if you do not believe me
then we both are badly cast
Verse 2 Middle:
you lay the blame on everybody
everybody but yourself
your chances have to be provided
so you can choose them from the shelf
may I humbly ask the question
which part are you playin' in this?
which is your role, your contribution?
your part seems to be amiss
Verse 3 Middle:
now that you have been fed up
like some kind of monstrous grub
all you're doing is complain
that you're bein' put under strain
that they do not declare your reign
aren't you a bit too vain?
Verse End:
you say that nobody cares
for the man you really are
I say that they've not known me
and I'm glad 'bout that so far
Refrain :
if you're the young man with no future
I'm the old man with no past
if you do not believe me
then we both are badly cast
Refrain END:
if you're the young man with no future
I'm the old man with no past
if you do not believe me
then we both are badly cast
