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?
