Big Time For Love

(album: Rover's Return - 1987)

These days I feel I'm fighting
Everything in sight
I'm fighting for my freedom
For my life
Some bigshot with the money
Puts my back against the wall
The red brick's waiting
For another bullet hole
There's a blitzkreig on the border
It's a sexual pleasure/pain
I'm staring down an empty glass
Til the violence starts again
It's the big time for love
It's the big time
It's the right time for love
It's the big time for your love
The queen is in the palace
But my sister's in the rain
Neon girls and gunshots
Ticking through my brain
They give you some detection
Bread and circus in your bed
A calculated showdown
It's very graphic bloodshed
Better put your house in order
There's a fireball in the sky
Kiss the wife and kids so long
Kiss your ass goodbye
It's the big time for love
It's the big time
It's the right time for love
It's the big time for love
This time it is
It's the big time
It's the right time for love
It's the big time for your love
We feel overdue
Cause we know what it feels like
There's no more
No white flag
And communication too
It's the big time for love
It's the right time
It's the time for love
It's the big time for love
This time it is
It's the big time
It's the right time for love
Call a truce or forget it
Big time for love
