Synopsis
Small written words are the lyrics to Vienna, by Billy Joel.

Slow down you crazy child • you're so ambitious for a juvenile • but then if you're so smart, tell me • why are you still so afraid? • where's the fire? whats the hurry about? • you better, cool it off before you burn it out.

From one of the greatest song writers in history, Billy Joel: Vienna.

I'm not good at being told what to do. I often don't take advice. When life feels out of control, I take my ambition and my drive and I push harder at work. I burn myself out. But when one songs seems to be playing all around you: in the tv shows you watch, in the random spotify playlists, at the shops, on the radio. It's time to listen...

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 tonightTonight,

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?
