Dr Mabuse (a paranoid fantasy)
Whispered (female):
"Mabuse ..."
Spoken (Susanne Freytag):
Why does it hurt when my heart misses the beat?
(Male Narration):
The man without shadow promises you the world
Tell him your dreams and fanatical needs
He's buying them all with cash
(Claudia Brucken vocals):
Sell him your soul
Sell him your soul
Sell him your soul
Never look back
Never look back
Sell him your soul
Sell him your soul
Never look back
Never look back
Sell him your soul
[Verse 1]
He's devoted to the devil
Fascinated by crime
Glamorous death is his destination
Eternal passion: his gain
Sell him your soul
Sell him your soul
Sell him your soul
Never look back
Never look back
Sell him your soul
Sell him your soul
Never look back
Never look back
Sell him your soul
Sell him your soul
Never look back
[Bridge to Verse 2]
Why does it hurt?
Why - Why does it hurt?
[Verse 2]
He's a satanic gambler
But you just the pool
And you've already lost
The chance of your lifetime
So don't be a fool -
Don't be a fool
Kein Zurueck fuer dich -
There's no way back
Sell him your soul ...
(backwards:)
Warum schmerzt es
Warum schmerzt es
Wenn mein Herz den Schlag verpasst?
(Male narrator, one line):
Don't be a fool
(strange bird-like noises)
Never look back
Never look back
