Opportunities Knocking Songtext
von Epicure

Watch every step you take
Enemies you make
But don′t think twice
Because that's synonymous with thinking
Twiddle your thumbs a while
Stand in single file
Load it up and put it in your head

Leave it all up to fate
Don′t anticipate
Or show your hand
To be anonymous is easy
Take it by strength or guile
It doesn't matter now
Everything's exactly as you said

You′ve got everything you need
Plus some tricks up your sleeve
And that thing you call a conscience
Which is easily appeased


Timing is everything
Says the whore to the king
And these events will bring
Their praises are what you sing
Flattery gets you in
And these events will bring
Opportunity′s knocking

Timing is everything
Says the whore to the king
And these events will bring (Opportunity's knocking)
Their praises are what you sing
Flattery gets you in
And these events will bring
Opportunity′s knocking

Realise once it's too late
Swallowed the bait
Choke it down
Its monotonous but routine
Standing up at your trial
Defence is denial
Speak your words
They′re sugary sweet


Leave it all up to fate
Don't anticipate
Or show your hand
To be anonymous is easy
Flash them your toothy smile
Oh how time will fly
Everything′s exactly as you said

You open doors without the keys
You've let me in
Now on your knees
And they've come to give a lesson
If only you′ll beg
Say pretty please

Timing is everything
Says the whore to the king
And these events will bring
Their praises are what you sing
Flattery gets you in
And these events will bring

Timing is everything
Says the whore to the king
And these events will bring
Their praises are what you sing
Flattery gets you in
And these events will bring
Opportunity′s knocking

And the crowd whisper amongst themselves
And the crowd whisper amongst themselves
I'll jump if everyone else does
And I′ll jump if everyone else does
And I'll jump if everyone else does
I′ll jump if you do

Timing is everything
Says the whore to the king
And these events will bring
Their praises are what you sing
Flattery gets you in
And these events will bring
Opportunity's knocking

Timing is everything
Says the whore to the king
And these events will bring (Opportunity′s knocking)

The dagger was never seen
Out of sight
And now the beggar screams at his queen
Where the fuck have you been?
Where the fuck have you been?
Where the fuck have you been?
Where the fuck have you been?
My dearest queen
