du fuhrst noch nie nach oregon
mein ami-schlitten aus chrom
vor dreißig jahren
warst du die sensation
mein kinder-spielzeugauto-traum
steht links vom telefon
roter commander, fahr doch schon!
der himmel ist groß
die highway rast davon
und die zeit ist zeitlos
ich seh oregon!
und sie heißt marylin!
some like it hot!
in salem die main street
mein bus stop ist noch dort
ich komme, marylin!
doch du fährst nie nach oregon
mein ami-schlitten aus chrom
denn heutzutage
bist du längst schrott und illusion
mein verstaubter spielzeug-traum
parkst links vom telefon
roter commander, fahr doch schon!
der himmel ist groß
die highway rast davon
und die zeit ist zeitlos
ich seh oregon!
und sie heißt marylin
some like it hot
in salem die main street
mein bus stop ist noch dort
ein song aus beton
die räder singen mit
ich sitze im fond
wo ist der zenit,
marylin?
