As if a flock of sheep is running inside of me;
they simultaneously sing a song to me - baa.
They will hit my nerves and break my patience,
so the only thing I will do is yell.

As if a lion tries to break out of me;
its silent roars once will become loud.
It will take my power of choice,
so I begin to prepare.

As if a snake whispers in my ear;
it tells me to succumb.
It will persuade me,
so I will comply.

As if a hedgehog is poking me,
as if a poisonous spider sits next to me;
Nevertheless, the chameleon inside of me
will hold the trophy of the conventional lifestyle.
