Annotationen
Genussmittel wie Zigaretten, Alkohol und Kokain sind Substitute für das richtige Leben, das man sich gewünscht haben mag, andererseits versorgen sie einen mit magischen Momenten im wirklichen Leben («make it happen»), das zuweilen gar nicht so magisch ist. Das ist die Ambivalenz, die jeder moderne Mensch empfindet, der Genussmittel funktional einsetzt, was Musiker/-innen oft tun.

Lyrics
Is it my imagination Or have I finally found something worth living for? I was looking for some action But all I found was cigarettes and alcohol You could wait for a lifetime To spend your days in the sunshine You might as well do the white line 'Cause when it comes on top . . . You gotta make it happen! Is it worth the aggravation To find yourself a job when there's nothing worth working for? It's a crazy situation But all I need are cigarettes and alcohol! You could wait for a lifetime To spend your days in the sunshine You might as well do the white line 'Cause when it comes on top... You gotta make it happen!
