Steel Claw
A night in television wonderland Just one more Fairy tale about some rich bitch Lying by the swimming pool It's golden school Living's easy when you make the rules Last Friday was the first time It took only about half a minute On the stairway It was child's play The odds turn out even When you give up believing in the...

Cold law, steel claw Try to get on board you find the lock is on the door Well I say 'No way Don't try to keep me out or there'll be hell to pay' I don't know who's right or who's wrong But it doesn't really matter when you're lying in the gutter It's a see-saw A long hot battle with the cold law Is what you get for messing with the steel claw Aus Songtexte Mania
