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 tired eyes?

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

And when you lift those covers in the middle of the night
Don′t you know that someday it is going to come to light

Like a timebomb, oh, a timebomb
Timebomb, oh, the fuse is lit and the time is ticking away


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

And when you lift those covers in the middle of the night
Don't you know that someday it is going to come to light

Like a timebomb, oh, a timebomb
A timebomb, oh, the fuse is lit and the time is ticking away

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

From this timebomb, oh, a timebomb
Timebomb, oh, the fuse is lit and the time is ticking away

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

And when you lift those covers in the middle of the night
Don't you know that one day it is going to come to light


Like a timebomb, oh, a timebomb
Timebomb, oh, a timebomb
Timebomb, oh, timebomb
Timebomb, oh, the fuse is lit and the time is ticking away
