| The businessmen got a job to do
|
| The Eastern world is waiting, too
|
| They’re sittin' on a bloodstone, calling you a beggar
|
| Waitin' for another deal in open cars
|
| The presence of the men gives a bad vibration
|
| They’re countin' dollar bills and they’re workin' on
|
| The final countdown
|
| Countdown
|
| I’m sitting all around and I’m waitin' for the lyrics
|
| They gotta be cool, gotta satisfy the critics
|
| «Signs of warning all across the edges»
|
| Maybe too pathetic… and my pencil scratches
|
| Meanwhile, X is comin' from Miami
|
| Another perfect deal was made in open cars
|
| I don’t care 'cause I’m much too busy
|
| I have to write my lyrics
|
| And I’m waiting for the final countdown
|
| Countdown
|
| It’s just a matter of time
|
| We’re only waitin' for the end of the world
|
| And we got nothing to lose
|
| We’re only servants of the monsters we curse
|
| It’s just a matter of time
|
| We can be sure we’ll be doin' our worst
|
| And we’re waiting for the countdown
|
| Another solo is coming around
|
| We’re sittin' all around and we drink our lager
|
| Thanks to God, we got no embargo
|
| What is left to do when you’re looking for pleasure
|
| Somehow, we gotta lose the pressure
|
| We’re sittin' on a bloodstone, worker, boss and beggar
|
| I don’t give a damn
|
| I want my open car
|
| God has turned to money, Jesus is a liqueur
|
| I’d rather get my record done and party for the final
|
| Countdown, countdown
|
| It’s just a matter of time
|
| We’re only waitin' for the end of the world
|
| And we got nothing to lose
|
| We’re only servants of the monsters we curse
|
| It’s just a matter of time
|
| We can be sure we’ll be doin' our worst
|
| And we’re waiting for the countdown
|
| Countdown
|
| The four, three, two, one
|
| Countdown
|
| Countdown
|
| Countdown |
