One day my boy will all be yours Everything what's still be mine It's to be hoped that you can wait Still waiting till the end of time These words did a father say Some weeks ago before he died The son is surviving and knows He gets all-cause the time is right You must learn to expect nothing Stay at home-it's cold outside Everything has got the price Try your luck but try to hide Sell yourself as good as you can Make the most of your talents Will you learn to expect nothing Take your fate into your hands You must learn to expect nothing Make the most of your talents Will you learn to expect nothing Take your fate into your hands
