Time Bomb Songtext
von The Sharks

When life is like a book
That has a missing page
A mind is full of thoughts
That torture you with age
What secrets do you hide
Behind those lying eyes?

You are all alone
But never on your own
With those voices in your head
And high rumors in your home
And do you hear those cries
When you close those tired eyes?

And when you lift those floorboards in the middle of the night
Don′t you know that someday it is gonna come to light
Like a time bomb, whoa-oh, a time bomb (Time bomb)
Time bomb, whoa-oh
The fuse is lit, now the time is ticking away
(Ticking away, tick-tick-ticking away)


A nation wonders why
One hundred cameramen
Are pallid at what they hear
Await the moment when
The secrets that you hide
Are no longer kept inside

And when you lift those floorboards in the middle of the night
Don't you know that someday it is gonna come to light
Like a time bomb, whoa-oh, a time bomb (Time bomb)
Time bomb, whoa-oh
The fuse is lit, now the time is ticking away
(Time is ticking away)

Oh mother, pray for me (Pray for me)
I can′t sleep 'til you set me free

From this time bomb, whoa-oh, a time bomb
Time bomb, whoa-oh
The fuse is lit, now the time is ticking away

When life is like a book
That has a missing page
The only thing to do
Is lock the prick away
With those secrets that you hide
Behind those lying eyes


And when you lift those floorboards in the middle of the night
Don't you know that someday it is gonna come to light
Like a time bomb, whoa-oh, a time bomb (Time bomb)
Time bomb, whoa-oh, a time bomb (Time bomb)
Time bomb, whoa-oh, a time bomb (Time bomb)
Time bomb, whoa-oh
The fuse is lit, now the time is ticking away
(Time is ticking away, tick-tick-ticking away)
