2. Thank you for the Music
So I say
Thank you for the
music, the songs I'm
singing
Thanks for all the joy
they're bringing
Who can live without it,
I ask in all honesty
Money, Money, Money
What would life be?
I work all night, I work all
day, to pay the bills I have
to pay
Ain't it sad
And still there never seems
to be a single penny left for
me
That's too bad
In my dreams I have a
plan

3. a balance must be found…
BUT
IS THE TELECOMS PACKAGE
THE RIGHT PLACE TO LOOK
FOR IT?

4. Burning my Bridges
Burning my bridges, cutting my tie
Once again I wanna look into the eye
Being myself
Counting my pride
No un-right neighbour's gonna take me for a
ride

5. The effect of many measures
affecting traffic could be
devastating to innovative
services
SURELY THAT IS NOT WHAT
WE WANT?

6. When All is Said and Done
Clear-headed and open-eyed
With nothing left untried
Standing calmly at the crossroads, no
desire to run
There’s no hurry any more when all is
said and done
The winner takes it all
The loser standing small
Beside the victory
That's her destiny
The Winner takes
7 it all

7. The Telecoms Package
comprises many helpful
clarifications
…AND EUROPE NEEDS LEGAL
CERTAINTY
