Trading in gold
trading in my old man's gold
nothing at the serious side
I'm playing with fire
Out in space
dancing wild and crazed
fortunate to be that way
no slave to reason
I do believe
you've a right to know
the urgency
does in no way show
I see your smiling, smiling faces
not in every town
some are up
some fall
they will never come down
Make no mistake
everybody wants and takes
stupid if you go against
natural science
I do believe
you've a right to know
the urgency
does in no way show
I see your smiling, smiling faces
not in every town
some are up
some fall
they will never come down
Open the door
and let yourself in
