The fate of the human carbine

Thinks of money all the time
Doing it to annoy her
She´s on his conscience day and night
So he acts like her employer
They all come and peep through a hole in the wall
Keep the bastards guessing
He likes to take the long way home
It´s another fine decision
From six to seven he´ll be all alone
So he turns on televison
Doesn´t even notice as the hours roll by
Gets lost inside the screen
Watches the film about the evening sky
It was someone else´s dream
All come peep through a hole
Keep the bastards guessing
They all come and peek through a hole in the wall
Just to watch his heart undressing
They all come and peep through a hole in the wall
´Cause you look so impressive
Doing it to annoy her
She´s on his conscience day and night
So he acts like her employer
They all come and peep through a hole in the wall
Keep the bastards guessing
He likes to take the long way home
It´s another fine decision
From six to seven he´ll be all alone
So he turns on televison
Doesn´t even notice as the hours roll by
Gets lost inside the screen
Watches the film about the evening sky
It was someone else´s dream
All come peep through a hole
Keep the bastards guessing
They all come and peek through a hole in the wall
Just to watch his heart undressing
They all come and peep through a hole in the wall
´Cause you look so impressive
