The Game Is On

(album: Master Of The Rings - 1994)

Have you seen this little toy
When you're down it gives you joy
You escape reality
Delve into its TV screen
For the rich and for the poor
For the even more secure
Doesn't matter where you are,
Where you go or when you been
Well, there's still no guarantee
For your virgin mind, you see
Just go on and play the game
You will surely go insane

The game is on
And you have gone
Gone to a world on its display
And the game is fun
But when it has won
All you ever hear is what it says

There's a great amount of fumes
Coming out from somebody's room
The firemen got there
Walking their way up the stairs
Find a man in a chair
But it doesn't seem he's there
With a grey box in his hands
He has gone to another land

The game is on
And you have gone
Gone to a world on its display
And the game is fun
But when it has won
All you ever hear is what it says

[SOLO]

You have played it much too long
Now your senses get things strong
All your walls come crashing down
Now it's time for you to frown
How d'you like this heavy load?
Guess your brain will soon explode
You never had this ugly feel
It's time to dial an emergency
