Mein Name ist Mensch (My name is human)

I have got many fathers and I have got many mothers
and I have got many sisters and I have got many brothers.
And my fathers are black and my brothers are yellow
and my mothers are red and my sisters are pale.
And I am about the age of 10.000 years old and my name is human
and I am about the age of 10.000 years old and my name is human!

I exist from air and I exist from love
and I exist from light and I exist from bread
And I have got two eyes and I can see everything
and I have got two ears and I can understand everything
And I am about the age of 10.000 years old and my name is human
and I am about the age of 10.000 years old and my name is human!

And I am about the age of 10.000 years old and my name is human
and I am about the age of 10.000 years old and my name is human!

We have got an enemy and he takes away our day
he lives off of our work and he exists from our power.
And he has got two eyes and he doesn't want to see
and he has got two ears and he doesn't want to understand.
And he is about the age of 10.000 years old and he has got many names
and he is about the age of 10.000 years old and he has got many names...

I know we will struggle and I know we will win
and I know we will live and I know we will love each other.
And the planet earth will belong to us all
and everybody will have what s/he needs.
And it will not last another 10.000 years, since the time has come
and it will not last another 10.000 years, since the time has come!
