Donovan's Reef |
| Scorching the painted desert adrift off of Donovan’s reef |
| Tossing and spinning your pills alone brings such sweet relief. |
| Open your mind and show me a sign to prove you’re insane. |
| Open your arms and show me the scars reflecting your pain. |
| Lovely lady, forgive me now |
| If words seem cruel |
| If words seem cruel. |
| You’ve lost your soul |
| You’ve grown so cold |
| You’ve learned the rules, |
| Obey the rules of their game: |
| Life’s just a game. |
| Pig boat sails across the seven seas |
| Servants at home are down on their knees |
| The master’s praying and begging me, «Please |
| Look away.» |
| Diamonds shining through an emerald sky |
| Watch the phantom as he flies by |
| Trying to laugh but he knows he must die. |
| Look away, look away, look away. |
| Satan dances of death and doom our time has finally come |
| Lower imps of sin sing an orgy of our flesh begun. |
| Excuse me, I can’t seem to recall exactly what’s happening here, |
| Your mask in the past always seemed to me to be so sincere. |
| She’s stolen you away |
| Taken your heart |
| Once it was mine, |
| Ah once it was mine. |
| You look so cool |
| But I’m no fool |
| You’ll pay for your crimes |
| By doing your time in their game, |
| Life’s just a game |
| Life’s just a game |
| You know that life is just a game |
| Life’s just a game |
| Life’s only a game… |
