How far to the touchline
Too far says the fräulein
How come such a long time
How come, it used to be so nice
Ten years for the bonehead
Ten years then you can control it
Set it all on fire
This whole damn empire

Set fire to the water on monday
Set fire to the ground on tuesday
Set fire to the air on wednesday
And in thursday's fire
Set fire to fire

Set fire to the water on monday
Set fire to the ground on tuesday
Set fire to the air on wednesday
Set fire to fire

How much for the time in the vacuum
How long of this living in a costume
How come that you're never in the next room
How come, when it used to feel so good
It's only winning if the feeling's there
I'm only in it if you promise me
Oh lord when you see it
Just grab hold and be it

Shake hands with the devil on friday
Sat down with the devil on saturday
Slow danced with the devil on sunday
