Hello little boys, little toys
We're the dreams you're believing
Crawling up the walls
Running down your face
Razor sharp, razor clean,
Feel the weapon's sensation
On your back

Rolling back your eyes

We're gonna ride the race cars
We're gonna dance on fire
We're the girls le disco
Supersonic overdrive

Silver shadow believer
Spock rocker with your dirty eyes
It's a chance gonna move
Gonna f*ck up your ego
Silly boy gonna make you cry
