Winterschläfer
that was your mum who i just informed
go back to bed while it’s still warm
not one thing you need that is not in this lair
just lay down your arms – you’re under my care
close those eyes
goodnight-night to you
go and doze
this cold winter through
and see what time will do
let’s pull up in chair now Janosch is here
for ich mach dich gesund, sagte der Bär
and when you’re fast asleep i will play with your hair
through my tears i will breathe you’re under my care
close those eyes
goodnight-night to you
go and doze
this cold winter through
the curtain’s drawn
the sun long gone
close those eyes
goodnight-night to you
go and doze
this cold winter through
and when spring arrives, we will have to see
if you’re sick of life or -maybe- me
