Tommyknockers

(album: Tales From The Twilight World - 1990)

[Lead Andre]

She's opening her eyes
to find the thing
by a touch she's lost
it's waiting for her a long time
the kingdom's lost
cause there's one nail missing
playing with fire
turn of the light
and she'll fall down
playing with her life
but she can't leave it
there's one rhyme in her brain

[Lead Andre]

[Ref:]
Oh, last night and the night before
Tommyknockers, Tommyknockers
knocked at your back door
Tommyknockers

[Lead Andre]

The pain in my head
the cycle awakes
I'm on my way to Oz
I want to drink and she wants to dig
she's in trouble oh I know
there's something going wrong
Tommyknockers on their way
What's up in "Leighton street"?

[Ref:]
Oh, last night and the night before
Tommyknockers, Tommyknockers
knocked at your back door

[Lead Andre]

I'm the hero, I'm back
with weapons and with magic spells
I'll seddle every task
an old, ill and drunken guy

[Lead Andre]

The moon is full of blood
I've found her not, not far from home
I should better get away from here
she's on her way to be another one
playing with fire
she can read my thoughts
it's too late
playing with her life
Tommyknockers brought her trouble

[Solo Andre]

The ship in the earth I touch
a vibration is filling me
and music is in my head
nose is bleeding
and my fall down
filled me with pain
you'll be like a Tommyknocker
I'll be like you
but there's something going wrong
I read it in your face

[Ref:]
Oh, last night and the night before
Tommyknockers, Tommyknockers
knocked at your back door
Tommyknockers knocked at your back door
Tommyknockers knocked at your back door
