The Heavy Entertainment Show – English Lyrics
Lyrics & Translation
[English]
Good evening children of cultural abandonYou searched for a saviour, well here I am
And all the best ones are dying off so quickly
While I'm still here, enjoy me while you can
Welcome to the Heavy Entertainment Show
The charisma's non-negotiable
Welcome to the Heavy Entertainment Show
I'm about to strip and you're my pole
We are so glorious
Why not leave your job and come on tour with us?
Before I drop dead and die
Good evening lovers of quality entertainment
Good evening to the others that don't know hit
Even you will leave here with a t-shirt and a programme
Got a house in LA, I'm still paying for it...
Welcome to the Heavy Entertainment Show
It's just the tip but no one will know
Welcome to the Heavy Entertainment Show
All the girls, the boys go
You are magnificent
Maybe come on stage and be a part of it
I said maybe, baby, baby ohhh
Come leave the life you're living
Show me the light you're giving
I'll give it all then a little bit more, oh-oh-woah
He would sell his children
For a hit in Belgium
God knows what he's done
For a number one
Welcome to the Heavy Entertainment Show
Where the more you see, the less you know
Welcome to the Heavy Entertainment Show
Where Eminem meets Barry Manilow
I am notorious
For making all the crowd sing the chorious
I just made up that word
Come love the life I'm living
Bathe in the light I'm giving
He'll give it all then a little bit more
Welcome to the Heavy Entertainment Show
I'm a volcano that's about to blow
Welcome to the Heavy Entertainment Show
This is how I'd like to say "Hello"
