With you, life moves so fast

With you, everything's the last

Slow down

Don't you think you could be less capricious

I've met you, I don't have no death wish

Slow down, slow down

With you, there is no denying

It's you, not my lack of trying

With you, everybody's dying

It's you, it's not me who's crying

Crying, crying, crying, crying

With you, staying home tidy from the streets

With you, every friend is a possible freak

Slow down, slow down

With you, it's a foregone conclusion

With you, empty, it's all a delusion

With you, I can have no illusions

It's you, who has such delusions

Crying, crying, crying, crying

With you, everyone's a sucker

With you, it's got to be your father

Slow down, slow down

With you, life is just a scramble

With you, every day it's a gamble

With you, I can't get my bearings

With you, playing the Virgin Mary

And your crying, crying, crying, crying

Crying, crying
