Charlie Chaplin

Marjan Debaene


The bells are ringing in my ears
Thunderbolt and lightning roar
Silent whispers become screams
And then the slamming of a door

The sirens raging in the streets
The window smashed to smithereens
And then this ever constant noise
The bleeping of computer toys

It's all over now
It's all over now
It's all over now
All is quiet now

Fingers tapping on a desk
Feet are running up the steps
City lights and traffic jams
Charlie Chaplin is the tramp

It's all over now
It's all over now
It's all over now
All is quiet now

Travel light, speed of sound, it's a rollercoaster
Run and hide, it's your face on a wanted poster
Bounty's yours if you want; only takes a heartbeat
Kill me now, while you can, while I lie here
Hush your mouth and be quiet, listen to the silence
Make a choice and decide if you'll go with violence
You were right, I was late, and I won't regret it
You will walk outta here and you will forget me....
