Tell me, for whom does she do everything with delight?
Life, after all, bargains in every fight.
Children insist only on stars so bright
Grown-ups make peace with fireflies at night
Ask for a kilo — she gives a quarter, that's her way
Life, after all, bargains in every sideways sway.
Ask for too much — she gives less and less
One bandage for four wounds, she will bless
A scratch she stretches till it's a deep scar
Life, after all, bargains near and far.
Children insist only on stars so bright
Grown-ups make peace with fireflies at night
Ask for a kilo — she gives a quarter, that's her way
Life, after all, bargains in every sideways sway.
At first, hearts attach for free anywhere
Every pleasure later comes with a bill to bear
She repeats the world till you're bored to death
Life, after all, bargains with every breath.
Children insist only on stars so bright
Grown-ups make peace with fireflies at night
Ask for a kilo — she gives a quarter, that's her way
Life, after all, bargains in every sideways sway.
Where to go, where to stop — who knows the plan
Where to bend, where to break — nobody can
A rest stop becomes the goal, the goal becomes a pause
Life, after all, bargains without a cause.
Tell me, for whom does she do everything with delight?
Life, after all, bargains in every fight.
