Finally Alex can walk,
Because he has been tamed.
His nature has been changed
With medication.
He gave his will for his freedom,
It wasn't clear to him yet.
It was far too high a price
And he paid it.
Now he's back,
But he quickly has to realize that
That everything is different,
Since he left here.
Because there was a picture in the newspaper from him
And everyone has seen it.
Old enemies are happy to turn the tables now.
Payday, payday, payday -
The time of punishment is just beginning for him.
Payday, payday, payday -
For a human machine that cannot defend itself.
It's his old game,
Only with the difference
That he's a loser
And now he's on his knees.
Remorse comes much too late now,
There is no one who sticks with him.
On the run from the past
He finds no hiding place.
Payday, payday, payday -
The time of punishment is just beginning for him.
Payday, payday, payday -
For a human machine that cannot defend itself.
