From a post on All That Chat:

I’m Gary Coleman, from a parallel Q-Niverse  
While I’m still here and thriving  
The real one’s in a hearse  
I’m still broke, but I’m alive, and it could be worse  
But I’m here, the superintendent, of Avenue Q.

It admittedly sounds nicer than the English translation:
