Lyrics
The Sodom and Gomorrah show
I lived a quiet life
a stranger to champagne
I never dared to venture out
to cities of the plain
I'd heard about their way of life
took it with a pinch of salt
The freedom and the time to play
a life so easy
it intrigued me
when you called to say:
"Are you gonna go
to the Sodom and Gomorrah Show?
It's got everything you need for your complete
entertainment and instruction
Sun, sex, sin, divine intervention,
death and destruction
The Sodom and Gomorrah show
is a once-in-a-lifetime production"
I think it's true to say
my life was changed that night
In the liberated
atmosphere
all around me
Someone found me
whispered in my ear
"Are you gonna go
to the Sodom and Gomorrah Show?
It's got everything you need for your complete
entertainment and instruction
Sun, sex, sin, divine intervention,
death and destruction
The Sodom and Gomorrah show
is a once-in-a-lifetime production"
Then we went on
after-hours
there was place down below
It was there I realised
the meaning of the show
You've got to love
to learn to live
where angels fear to tread
I did it and I don't regret the day
Even now
I think of how
you turned to me to say
"Sun, sex, sin, death and destruction
Are you gonna go
to the Sodom and Gomorrah Show?
Sun, sex, sin, divine intervention,
death and destruction
The Sodom and Gomorrah show
is a once-in-a-lifetime production"

Lyrics T
- That's my impression
- The boy who couldn't keep his clothes on
- The calm before the storm
- The dumpling song
- The end of the world
- The former enfant terrible
- The ghost of myself
- The loving kind
- The man who has everything
- The night I fell in love
- The only one
- The resurrectionist
- The Samurai in autumn
- The Sodom and Gomorrah show
- The sound of the atom splitting
- The survivors
- The theatre
- The truck-driver and his mate
- The view from your balcony
- The way it used to be
- This must be the place I waited years to leave
- This used to be the future
- Time on my hands
- To face the truth
- To speak is a sin
- To step aside
- Together
- Tonight is forever
- Too many people
- Tranquilizer
- Transparent
- Try it (I'm in love with a married man)
- Twentieth Century
- Two divided by zero
