Lies

Alphaville

baby

what do i do

playing my tune for you

just to get you in the mood

everybody's going to hollywood

you're driving me mad

but i'm smiling to the crowd instead

a lot of money is at stake,

this is a hit and that's a fake

this is what you mean to me

this is what they all should see

make a make up in a foolish style

telling the truth by making a big lie

when i come, i come but nothing's at ease

breaking up the whole is a modern disease

maybe you think tomorrow's just a joke

it's a joke after joke after joke after joke

my love

everything's an interview

and nothing's really new

and everybody's looking for clues

and you know what to do with a clue

my love

get ready for the show

they're waiting and they will never go

this night is just a go

and it's only for show

dig that deal and be a millionaire

drinking cocktails in the stratosphere

getting jetlagged with my business friends in these supersonic wonderlands

there's a flicker on the graphic display,

first he's smiling then he's fading away

maybe he thinks tomorrow's just a joke

it's a joke after joke after joke after joke
