Wie du doch das Treiben satt hast!
Immer wirft dich diese Flut
an ein unbekanntes Ufer,
und dir fehlt schon lang der Mut,
neuen Küsten zu begegnen.
Du bist müde, gräbst dich ein
und beschließt für alle Zeiten,
nie mehr heimatlos zu sein.
Und das nennt sich dann erwachsen
oder einfach Realist.
Viele Worte, zu umschreiben,
daß man feig geworden ist.
Was passierte in den Jahren,
wohin hast du sie verschenkt?
Meistens hast du doch am Tresen
das Geschick der Welt gelenkt.
Und die fiel nicht aus den Angeln,
höchstens du fielst manchmal um,
und für die, die du bekämpft hast,
machst du jetzt den Buckel krumm.
Auch du wolltest wie die andern
fest in einem Weltbild stehn.
Statt die Ängste zu durchwandern,
übst du, sie zu übersehn.
Manchmal jagst du für Sekunden
deinen Zweifeln hinterher,
doch aus Sorge um die Wunden
bleibst du lieber ungefähr.
Und dann triffst du noch die Kämpfer
aus der guten alten Zeit,
fesche Jungs mit drallen Frauen,
und ihr lächelt alle breit.
Was passierte in den Jahren,
wohin hast du sie verschenkt?
Meistens hast du doch am Tresen
das Geschick der Welt gelenkt.
Und die fiel nicht aus den Angeln,
höchstens du fielst manchmal um,
und für die, die du bekämpft hast,
machst du jetzt den Buckel krumm.
Und ich frag mich, ob ich wirklich
so viel anders bin als du.
Zwar, ich kleide meine Zweifel
in Gedichte ab und zu,
das verschafft paar ruhige Stunden,
eigentlich ist nichts geschehn.
Ach, es gibt so viele Schliche,
um sich selbst zu hintergehn.
Doch da muß jetzt was passieren,
zuviel Zeit ist schon verschenkt,
und es wird von den Erstarrten
das Geschick der Welt gelenkt.
Und die fällt bald aus den Angeln.
Komm, wir gehen mit der Flut
und verwandeln mit den Wellen
unsre Angst in neuen Mut
