Lyrics

Mike Scheller says
His life is a mess ––
Fritz Rau says: "Asparagus
Should only be consumed
By People with a large amount
In an unmarked bank account!"

Shall we take ourselves seriously?
Shall we talk about it all night long?
Shall we think we are so evolved?
(Will we be depressed if we're wrong?)

Shall we take ourselves seriously?
Shall we take ourselves elsewhere?
Shall we drink while we squat there,
In the middle of this stupid song?

Shall we never go out there?
Shall we take us where we don't belong?
When we notice the spargel is gone.
Shall we weep in the Box-Office Dawn?

Are the tickets all counted?
Are the costs all accounted for?
Shall we bring up the spargel
For discussion at least once more?

Shall we take ourselves seriously?
Shall we think we are so mature?
Shall we be very wrong, at the end of this song?
Yes we will, evermore!
