Slow down, you crazy child 
You're so ambitious for a juvenile 
But then if you're so smart, then tell me 
Why are you still so afraid? 

Where's the fire, what's the hurry about? 
You'd better cool it off before you burn it out 
You've got so much to do  
And only so many hours in a day 

But you know that when the truth is told
That you can get what you want or you get old 
You're gonna kick off before you even 
Get halfway through 
When will you realize, Vienna waits for you

Slow down, you're doing fine 
You can't be everything you want to be 
Before your time 
Although it's so romantic on the borderline tonight 
Tonight,
Too bad but it's the life you lead 
You're so ahead of yourself that you forgot what you need 
Though you can see when you're wrong, you know 
You can't always see when you're right. you're right 

You've got your passion, you've got your pride 
But don't you know that only fools are satisfied? 
Dream on, but don't imagine they'll all come true 
When will you realize, Vienna waits for you? 

Slow down, you crazy child 
And take the phone off the hook and disappear for awhile 
It's all right, you can afford to lose a day or two 
When will you realize, Vienna waits for you? 
And you know that when the truth is told 
That you can get what you want or you can just get old 
You're gonna kick off before you even get half through 
Why don't you realize, Vienna waits for you 
When will you realize, Vienna waits for you?
