Die Steinzeit war die Hölle
The Stone Age was hell
Wir hatten nix und das Leben war schwer
We had nothing and life was difficult
Fraßen Dreck
Eat dirt
Schissen ins Loch und alle rannten
Shit in the hole and everyone ran
Nackt im Wald umher
Naked in the forest
Doch dann kam der Faustkeil, der Flitzebogen
But then came the hand axe, the speed bow
Das Lagerfeuer
The campfire
Plötzlich war es nicht mehr ganz so
Suddenly it wasn't quite like that anymore
Doof und alle wurden immer glücklicher
Stupid and everyone became happier and happier

Und heute
And today
Nach Millionen von Jahren ist alles
After millions of years everything is
Voll mit herrlichen Sachen
Full of wonderful things
Und jedes einzelne wurde erfunden
And every single one was invented
Um uns alle glücklich zu machen
To make us all happy
Darum hören wir jetzt alle auf zu meckern
So let's all stop complaining now
Zeigen lieber etwas Dankbarkeit
Better show some gratitude
Genießen still dieses Privileg für immer
Enjoy this privilege forever
In Glück und Zufriedenheit!
In happiness and contentment!
