De wereld heeft mij failliet verklaard
Ik heb me nog nooit zo goed en licht gevoeld als nu
Ik heb me nog nooit zo schoon en bevrijd gevoeld als nu
Weg met de kroegen
Weg gezuip
Weg zijn de katers
Dronken flaters
Glazige morgens
En hun zorgen; niet te betalen
De wereld heeft mij failliet verklaard
Het is een verbazingwekkend lot, waar men mij mee stoorde
Een verbazingwekkend lot, van wat eens bij mij behoorde
Geen parasieten
Geen gevlij
Geen gestroop meer
Geen gevrij
Geen gelik meer
't Is voorbij, niets meer te halen
De wereld heeft mij failliet verklaard
Het is een geschenk van God en niet van de maatschappij
Het is een geschenk van God en dit is wat hij zei:
Je moet weer werken
Je moet weer zingen
Je moet weer lachen
Je moet weer spelen
Je moet weer geven
En beleven
Je moet weer stralen
De weg is vrij
De weg is open
De weg is mateloos van mij
Zonder bagage
Kan ik weer lopen
Want ik ben nu vogelvrij
De wereld heeft mij failliet verklaard
Ik ben ontstegen aan het groot krakeel
Ik ben ontslagen aan het maffe oordeel
Ik heb niets meer te verliezen
Ik heb alleen
Te winnen
Te beminnen
Te beginnen
Ik ben niet meer
Te achterhalen
