眺めるだけじゃ始まんない
君のものにはならない
いつまでそこでそうやって
指をくわえてるつもり?

Here's my translation:

"Nothing ever happens if you just look,
And you'll never gain anything either
Are you planning on going on like that forever while you
Suck your thumb?"
Yeah~ direct translation is like,

"It won't begin with just staring/watching,
It won't become your's.
Do you plan on doing that,
and sucking your thumb until then?"

Like that~ ^^)

Gustave is much more indirect, and makes it sound nice for english~
I like that one.
