Текст песни и перевод на английский Kurt Ostbahn & Die Kombo - Nimma schnö gnua

Nimma schnö gnua

Dei Jean is vom Diseina
Mit de Bock kennan andare fliagn
Oba du gehst jetzt boid am Fufzga
Und muaßt noch jeda Stiagn pausiern
Noch jeda Stiagn pausiern

Du kennst de Hockn wia ka zweita
Du manst, a jeda kriagt sei zweite Chance
Du sogst, des Singan mocht de jünga
Und des is ois im Lebn wost kannst

Oba des Gschäft is nimma so wia fria
Und du bist no vom oidn Schlog
Plogst de o fia z'wenig Gerschtl
Glaubst, es kummt no amoi dei Tog

Fias schnölle Göd
Bist Nimma schnö gnua
Fias große Glück
Woast oiweu z'klaa
Du host es ned darennt
Du host es ned daglengt
Und jetzt san längst
De Nächstn dran
San längst de Nächstn dran

Wannst heit a Nocht lang durchmochst
Bist drauf a Wochn lang marod
Und wann di d'Jungen damit höscherln
Dasaufst dein Blues in Cola rot

Rennt a Trend rennst hinten nocha
Wannst eam einholst is scho z'spät
Woast a halbes Joa da Kaiser
Glaubst seit dreiß'g Joa, dass no amoi geht

Fias schnölle Göd
Bist nimma schnö gnua
Fias große Glück
Woast oiweu z'klaa
Du host es ned darennt
Du host es ned daglengt
Und jetzt san längst
De Nächstn dran
San längst de Nächstn dran

Fias schnölle Göd
Bist nimma schnö gnua
Fias große Glück
Woast oiweu z'klaa

Fias schnölle Göd
Bist nimma schnö gnua
Fias große Glück
Woast oiweu z'klaa

Fias schnölle Göd
Bist nimma schnö gnua
Fias große Glück
Woast oiweu z'klaa

Fias schnölle Göd
Bist nimma schnö gnua
Fias große Glück
Woast oiweu z'klaa

You're not fast enough any more

Your jeans are by a designer
With the shoes you believe you can fly
But soon you'll be turning fifty
And have to take a break after every flight of stairs
After every flight of stairs

You know the bars like no other
You believe everyone gets a second chance
You say that singing makes you younger
And that's all you can do in life

But business isn't what it used to be
And you are one of the old guard
Toiling away for too little money
Believing that your day will come

For the quick buck
You're not fast enough anymore
For the big break
You were always too small
You didn't make the run
You didn't make the climb
And now it's long since
The next ones' turn
It's long since the next ones' turn

When you pull an all-nighter these days
You're sick for a week
And when the kids tease you with it
You drown your sorrows in red cola

A trend comes along, you run after it
By the time you catch up, it's too late
You were the emperor for half a year
For thirty years you've believed that it will happen again

For the quick buck
You're not fast enough anymore
For the big break
You were always too small
You didn't make the run
You didn't make the climb
And now it's long since
The next ones' turn
It's long since the next ones' turn

For the quick buck
You're not fast enough anymore
For the big break
You were always too small

For the quick buck
You're not fast enough anymore
For the big break
You were always too small

For the quick buck
You're not fast enough anymore
For the big break
You were always too small

For the quick buck
You're not fast enough anymore
For the big break
You were always too small
