MONEY MAKERS

you do your job from 9-5 you feed the kids & dress the wife still something extra would be nice why should you worry 'bout the price that's where the bills start coming in that's where the money race begins with all this overtime at night your income tax went out of sight!

- that's how it goes -

so now you found out a little too late that you slipped you spend the rest of your life in the grip of the money makers, money makers money makers, money makers

they steal your heart in stereo full colour ads on video they tell you how to write a song they tell you when to sing along they pick your bones until they're clean then put you in their magazines 'to raise some money for the poor' and work you out through the backdoor

- that's how it goes -

so now you found out a little too late that you slipped you spend the rest of your life in the grip of the money makers, money makers money makers, money makers

WAKE UP • ■

and Mr. Atlas plays the juggler and Mr. Big Ham breeds the mustard

■ when he's after something bigger he's so used to pull the Trigger

and in the middle of the panic • many hearts are changing

and in the middle of the nightmare I woke up

I put my T V. set on fire to get away from the Network Spider where every starlet plays the donkey and every singer hits the wrong key

and when you're finally back to normal there's the taxman at the doorbell he says your daydream might be allright but your books can't stand the daylight!

and in the middle of the panic many hearts are changing and in the middle of the nightmare I woke up time to wake up it's time to wake

time to wake up it's time to wake up

and Mr. Atlas plays the juggler and Mr. Big Ham breeds the mustard he is after something bigger he's so used to pull the Trigger

pull the Trigger.

TOMORROW (IS ANOTHER DAY) ▼

tomorrow is another day, another day that might be just the same we're waiting for a lucky break to break away, to ease away the pain waiting for a lucky break waiting for a lucky - break ^

life became an industry, everything for you and me we are being taken care of, even when we're sound asleep no surprises guaranteed - life became security we are being taken care of. even when we re sound asleep waiting for a lucky break waiting for a lucky - break

NUTS IN A SHELL • so you go downtown, lookin' around

try to find someone to do the up & down

it's the nighttime, turning you on

get a couple of drinks at the local bar

meet some friends, get a little too fdr

it's the nighttime, turning you on

you know you should go back to your single bed

but that's not that easy

for getting up at eight at the break of day

you need a better reason.

so you drive around with a restless mind

lookin' for things you cannot find

tomorrow will be just the same,

it's time to break away

TIME TO BREAK AWAY -

SHIVERS •

if there is more than God & Television

it must be something from real far away

I've seen it all in my imagination

I hear a sound that keeps me wide-awake

- shivers in the night, shivers in the morning

could it be a sign, could it be a warning

I try to concentrate on new dimensions

don't try to find me 'cause I'm miles away

behind the meteors are new adventures

I hear a sound that keeps me wide-awake

- shivers in the night, shivers in the morning

could it be a sign, could it be a warning

I send my signals off to all directions

I feel the shivers running down my spine

would there really be a space connection

I hope they come and get me right on time

- shivers in the night, shivers in the morning

could it be a sign, could it be a warning?

HEY LOOK THERE OVER THE MOUNTAINS

COMES A BRIGHTER SORT OF BLUE

SOME OUTERSPACE MISSION'S COMING TO PICK UP ONE OF US

WHO IS SCARED AND WHO ISN'T.

I'M CURIOUS TO SEE - WHILE DEEP INSIDE I'M WHISHING

THAT THE ONE THEY'LL PICK UP

IS ME.

I'm such - bad company

drifting off - while you're so good to me

each time I tell myself

I go nuts in a shell, I go nuts in a shell

why don't I stay here with you

like any normal guy would do

I know myself too well,

1 go nuts in a shell, I go nuts in a shell

then again, what nature made in men

it comes up, till it hurts

won't take long before I'm back again

cause you know how it works...

temptation - love's chemistry

load / unload - your battery

we know o.urselves so well,

we're all nuts in a shell, we're all nuts in a shell

2 persons - one memory

each time I shed a silent tear

I know myself too well,

I go nuts in a shell, I go nuts in a shell

then again, what nature made in men

it comes up till it hurts

won't take long before I'm back again

cause you know how it works...

we're all nuts in a shell, we're all nuts in a shell

CAMERA •

I am a camera

I've got the picture

I am a camera

I've got the vision

when she was naked

I took a snapshot

I am a camera

you've got the story

I'm the private eye for millions

I am a camera

I got no feeling

I take a moment

into eternity
