I lived a quiet life A stranger to champagne I never dared to venture out To cities of the plain I'd heard about their way of life Took it with a pinch of salt The freedom and the time to play A life so easy It intrigued me When you called to say: "Are you gonna go To the Sodom and Gomorrah Show? It's got everything you need for your complete Entertainment and instruction Sun, sex, sin, divine intervention, Death and destruction The Sodom and Gomorrah show Is a once-in-a-lifetime production" I think it's true to say My life was changed that night In the liberated Atmosphere All around me Someone found me Whispered in my ear "Are you gonna go To the Sodom and Gomorrah Show? It's got everything you need for your complete Entertainment and instruction Sun, sex, sin, divine intervention, Death and destruction The Sodom and Gomorrah show Is a once-in-a-lifetime production" Then we went on After-hours There was place down below It was there I realised The meaning of the show You've got to love To learn to live Where angels fear to tread I did it and I don't regret the day Even now I think of how You turned to me to say "Sun, sex, sin, death and destruction Are you gonna go To the Sodom and Gomorrah Show? Sun, sex, sin, divine intervention, Death and destruction The Sodom and Gomorrah show Is a once-in-a-lifetime production"

Kronos is drumming And time is running Enter the Aeon And bring back the past Wheel of fortuna Dancing with Shiva Spin to the newborn Who live to the last The world is changing And fall apart End of the kingdom And of the heart The queen of the beauty (veil of time) Now cold and pale (veil of time) The sun is setting (veil of time) The night prevail (veil of time) But fear, not darkness It's hidden light And you will find it Shining with bright The time is running (veil of time) The flame will burn (veil of time) When today vanish (veil of time) But all return (veil of time) Time will come to an end But bring back the start again Queen of time will rise again And bring forth the fortune Wheel of time will whire around And bring back the past
