[Verse 1] The streets are lined with camera crews Everywhere he goes is news Today is different, today is not the same Today I make the action, take snapshot into the light Snapshot into the light, Im shooting into the light [Verse 2] Four miles down the cavalcade moves on Driving into the sun If I worked it out right, they wont see me or the gun Two miles to go, theyre clearing the road And the cheering has really begun Ive got my radio, I can hear whats going on [Bridge 1] Ive been waiting for this Ive been waiting for this All you people in TV land I will wake up your empty shells Peaktime viewing blown in a flash As I burn into your memory cells Cause Im alive [Verse 3] Theyre coming around the corner with the bikers at the front Im wiping the sweat from my eyes Its a matter of time, a matter of will And the governors car is not far behind, hes not the one Ive got in mind Cause there he is, the man of the hour, standing in the limousine [Bridge 2] I dont really hate you, I dont care what you do We were made for each other, me and you I want to be somebody, you were like that too If you dont get given you learn to take And I will take you Holding my breath Release the catch And I let the bullet fly [Outro] All turned quiet, I have been here before A lonely boy hiding behind the front door Friends have all gone home Theres my toy gun on the floor Come back, Mum and Dad Youre growing apart, you know that Im growing up sad I need some attention I shoot into the light
