Überall ist Wunderland Überall ist Leben Bei meiner Tante im Strumpfenband wie irgendwo daneben. Überall ist Dunkelheit Kinder werden Väter. Fünf Minuten später stirbt sich was für einige Zeit. Überall ist Ewigkeit. Wenn Du einen Schneck behauchst Schrumpft er ins Gehäuse, Wenn Du ihn in Kognak tauchst, Sieht er weiße Mäuse.

Everywhere is a wonderland. Everywhere shows there is life. In Auntie's elastic garter band As in the wider world, it's rife. Darkness is everywhere. Children sire more young. Five minutes later, life has sung; What lived, dies, even if unfair, In some eternity's everywhere. If you breathe on the little snail's head, It shrinks back that shrinking head. If you drench it with Cognac, I've read, It hallucinates white mice instead.
