LYRICS:
This story starts in black and white
Young Tony is now 29...There´s fire in his eyes.
He holds the world in his hand
He shoots his gun with the other one
But does he understand?

Well, I can´t, can´t, can´t, can´t figure out
You can have it all, and boast about it
Every single day
You can show your face in the magazines
You can tell the queen you´re the fucking king
But everything´s the same (I mean)

I don´t mind if you turn out the lights
´cause today is the day we will put you away
I don´t mind if you turn out the lights
´cause today is the day you will pay

You may reach the top, you may build your life on bloody gold
But what do you want that for?
You will never, never, never change your mind
You will never, never, never realize
Your soul is black as coal

Well, I can´t, can´t, can´t, can´t figure out
You can have it all, and boast about it
Every single day
You can show your face in the magazines
You can tell the queen you´re the fucking king
But everything´s the same (I mean)

I don´t mind if you turn out the lights
´cause today is the day we will put you away
I don´t mind if you turn out the lights
´cause today is the day you will pay
