You don't care about nothing
  So you don't care about love
  If you want me to come back
  You'd better change
    You'd better give up talking about money
  Begin thinking of love
  If you want me to come back
  You'd better change
    You'd better change for the better
  It cost more than dollars and cents
  Take it from me there's - got to be
  An end to this decadence
  This decadence
    You don't care about people
  So you don't care about pain
  If you want me to come back
  You'd better change
    You'd better change for the better
  Start using some common sense
  Take it from me there's - got to be
  An end to this decadence
    For decadence - is fatal
  It's the beginning of the end
  In self-defense
  I cannot recommend
  This decadence
    You don't care about real life
  You're too distant and strange
  If you want me to come back
    You'd better change for the better
  It may be rather intense
  Stop this caprice, you've got to cease
  This fin-de-siecle pretence
    For decadence - is fatal
  It's the beginning of the end
  In consequence
  I cannot recommend
  This decadence
  This decadence
  This decadence
  This decadence
