Nina Hagen - Only Seventeen lyrics
[Nina Hagen - Only Seventeen lyrics]
Birds bring me this message
It helps to start my day
Heaven still does us favors
Like the Indians used to say
Keeping alive in a dying world
The basics remain the best way
This ain't nothing you haven't heard
But the new age is here to stay
So young you should not be lazy
Work hard, but don't make yourself crazy
Who's gonna listen when you disapprove?
They say the excuses have all been used
Giving this world all you can of yourself
And somebody still isn't satisfied
Trust yourself, if no one else
Be strong, you know you're gonna make it
Young! Savage! And only seventeen
Big! Power! You're my living dream
Super! Great! The leader of the scene
So young, savage, and only seventeen
Only seventeen
So young, so strong, I will follow you
So big, so great, I'm in love it's true
Get me, I'm ready, if not I will be blue
If you want me to I'd follow you
Just ask me to, yes I love you
Nothing in the world comes before it's time
Like it or not, so is this life designed
Old dogs and new tricks must be kept apart
So when you give love it
Must be from the heart
Young! Savage! But only seventeen
Big! Power! You're my living dream
Super! Great! The leader of the scene
So young, savage, and only seventeen
Only seventeen
So young, so strong, I will follow you
So big, so great, I'm in love it's true
Get me, I'm ready, if not I will be blue
You're too young to be exposed
Radiation's burning through your clothes
Your heart's on fire, your mind's ablaze
In (AN AGE OLD) a stranger wait's
Youire seventeen, a teenage dream
Your heart is the rhythm of the acid scene
Whereis a nightclub icuz you gotta go
The people know where the bass bands blow
And the rhythm and the body
But, youire not satisfied
You wanna take your mind on a little ride
You're only seventeen and right
Through the night so the wisdom of your life
Make me your queen you are my dream
I know you're big i hope you'll dig
My Angebot i'm the Chinese Goat
If you want me to i'll follow you
Just ask me to yes I love you
It helps to start my day
Heaven still does us favors
Like the Indians used to say
Keeping alive in a dying world
The basics remain the best way
This ain't nothing you haven't heard
But the new age is here to stay
So young you should not be lazy
Work hard, but don't make yourself crazy
Who's gonna listen when you disapprove?
They say the excuses have all been used
Giving this world all you can of yourself
And somebody still isn't satisfied
Trust yourself, if no one else
Be strong, you know you're gonna make it
Young! Savage! And only seventeen
Big! Power! You're my living dream
Super! Great! The leader of the scene
So young, savage, and only seventeen
Only seventeen
So young, so strong, I will follow you
So big, so great, I'm in love it's true
Get me, I'm ready, if not I will be blue
If you want me to I'd follow you
Just ask me to, yes I love you
Nothing in the world comes before it's time
