Your time is up and you are all alone now
you couldn´t make your way
You´ve just left school, futurity is blown now
you while away your days
One-Two-Three-Four, say, what you are waiting for
stand up for your rights (but I say)

Your life ist gone, your race is almost run - but
you´re dying day by day
You waste your time when all is aid and done - but
those times won´t fade away
One-Two-Three-Four, say, what you are waiting for
stand up for your rights - for your rights

You´re on your own, and too much time has passed boy
bad news and broken dreams
You´re out of mind, it blows you down at last, boy
now you´re down on your knees (but I say)

Come day, go day, twenty-four hours
you can make your own way night and day
Come day, go day, twenty-four hours
you can make your own way if you try
