iPod being on during indexing -> hearing song I didn't remember was on there -> using conveniently open Google (for syndrome-name-spelling-checking) to look up lyrics ->

So Spricht Das Leben

So sayeth life, the world is mine.
Flowers bloom and birds sing for me
I am the day and the sunlight,
So sayeth life, the world is mine.

So sayeth death, the world is mine,
Your daylight is but vain display,
Stars and moon sink in eternal night.
So sayeth death, the world is mine.

So sayeth life, the world is mine,
You make great tombs of marblestone,
But you cannot entomb love,
So sayeth life, the world is mine.

So sayeth death, the world is mine.
I have prepared a graveyard,
And created pestilence and war.
So sayeth death, the world is mine.

So sayeth life, the world is mine.
Every grave is a plot of land,
Into which my eternal seeds do fall.
So sayeth life, the world is mine.

-- from the album Worlde Blysse by Mediaeval Baebes, not sure at the moment of original author as CD is at home
