Fireball Songtext
von Tumor Circus

Pinball in the pocket
Fate is not alone
Something has to switch the machine on
Drop a quarter in
You popped up from below
Outside the glass
Springs pull back
And ready or not, here you go

Fire!
You′re on the field
Buffer to buffer
Wall to wall
Lights go on
Bells go off
Twist around at the whim of unseen hands

Riding a fireball
How long can it last?
Each one can decide where the others go
And they're all out of control


Some people know they′ve got it
Other people don't
Can't born with it, it takes both work and luck
Reach for strands of meaning
It all flies by so fast
Like taking branches from a tree
And all slips through my hands

Riding a fireball
How long will it last?
Try to grab it by the floor
Or it′s coming down

Life goes by in such a whirl
Of energy
Consequence, direction, speed
Knock down targets, rack up points
Try not to fall back down that hole

Time stops
Look around
Out there with you
Your more powerful twin
The one who seems to be everything
You thought you could never be
It′s now or never to knock 'em down
And soar to be free
You′re on a roll now
Go!


Collide
Action equal reaction
Surprise
Big obstacles
Are so much bigger after all
One chance leads to another and another
One shot
Bad aim
You sprint through the gate
Towards the dot
Release one hand
And go in two

Extra balls
Allies
Chances
Then one by one they vanish
Circumstances everyday
Rocket fuel only get in the way
On your own
Try not to fall
With no means of support
But you

Riding that fireball
Gotta make it last
Way beyond
What you thought you're in to play
Can almost grab the reins
And use that energy
Dressed in black and ricochet
One roll til your hands are free
Rolling back down towards that hole

Here I am, locked in the dark
At least I have my time
To sort through all these flashes in my mind
