Een zomer aan het eind van de twintigste eeuw


Ik zwem door het water
Op een zondagmorgen
In een zomer aan het eind
Van de twintigste eeuw
Is er iemand die weten kan
Wat de tijd ons brengen zal
Is er iemand die weet
Vannacht was alles zo helder
Vannacht ontdekten wij Amerika
De skyline van Manhatten
Het Mekka van het kapitaal
Met zakenlui op bedevaart
En hoeren op creditcard
En voor de vrouw een ansichtkaart
In een zomer aan het eind
Van de twintigste eeuw
Ik zwem door het water
Als door de tijd die vloeibaar lijkt
Een jongeman op het strand
Bouwt een stad van geel zand
Is er iemand die weten kan
Hoelang die stad bestaan zal
Is er iemand die weet
Vannacht was alles zo helder
Vannacht ontdekten wij Amerika
De skyline van Manhatten
De stad die nooit slaapt
Jungle van beton en staal
Waar zonder geld geen geluk bestaat
Maar oh zo mooi zo verschrikkelijk onvermaakt
In een zomer aan het eind
Van de twintigste eeuw
In een zomer aan het eind
Van de twintigste eeuw
