[Storyteller.]

Slow down, you crazy child;
you're so ambitious for a juvenile.
But then if you're so smart tell me,
why are you still so afraid?

Where's the fire,
what's the hurry about?
You'd better cool it off
before you burn it out.
You got so much to do and
only so many hours in a day.

But you know that when the truth is told,
that you can get what you want
or you can just get old.
You're gonna kick off before you
even get halfway through.
When will you realize, Vienna waits for you?

Slow down, you're doing fine.
You can't be everything you want
to be before your time.
Although it's so romantic
on the borderline tonight,
tonight.

Too bad but it's the life you lead.
You're so ahead of yourself
that you forgot what you need.
Though you can see when
you're wrong, you know,
you can't always see
when you're right, you're right.

You've got your passion,
you've got your pride,
but don't you know that
only fools are satisfied?
Dream on, but don't imagine
they'll all come true.
When will you realize
Vienna waits for you?

Slow down, you crazy child,
and take the phone off the hook
and disappear for awhile.
It's all right, you can
afford to lose a day or two...
