17 - The proof

I know
It could be really late, now
I am trying
To pay off my debts with these words

I did it
It's me who did it
All they asked me to do
I did it

And now
Reading in your mail
Reading in your mind
There is something
You would not like to face

Engino-automatical
Hyper-op optical
Faraway tropical
The keywords for me

How I recall
Being rich and naughty and all
Thinking the world after all is so small

And having my skills
Paid on top of the hills
I forgot to pay one of my bills

And I had to realize the biggest
Automated system of control
I couldn't cope that this way people
All around were going to lose
Every single private particle of life
And eventually could be murdered at sight

But I did it
You know I did it

Because they paid me strong enough
I did it

Because I was a low-life, you know why
I did it

Yes I know
At the beginning of this song

It seemed
I was about to apologize

But now there is this cheque
In front of me
And this gun behind my back

I fear it's the proof
That I won't change it
