That chorus (confirmed with Vic) is as follows:
"You consider no question,
store contempt for the lesson,
see no true reflection,
with no intention to receive a visit soon,
although you need a visit soon,
I'll guarantee a wooden spoon,
ambivalence calls your every tune."

@sneeuwitje
my take was - though i never dared posting it truth be told - always along the lines of:
"You can see (it in) the question So contemporar... (something) Seen my true reflection With no intention
To be seen (is it soon) You need (is it soon) A guarantee (is it soon) And people will (something)".

the parts with spoon and tune I thought I always heard, though - just couldn't get it to make any contextual sense.

@voltabolta I've been listening to this song for nearly 40 years and I never knew what he was saying either. They are pretty abstract.
