81 Out of Hand
(Airey, Gillan, Glover, Morse, Paice)
Van het Deep Purple album 
Een vriend schreef mij…'Ian, gaat dit nummer over de muziek industrie?'
Ik antwoorde…'Oh jee, dat moet je niet denken…'
Dat is natuurlijk het probleem als je cryptisch bent, alles is open voor interpretatie.
Het lijkt duidelijk voor mij dat Francesco del Giocondo's vrouw aambeien had toen ze voor Leonardo da Vinci poseerde en dat Eric Cantona's beroemde grappige opmerking - "Als zeemeeuwen een
Trawler volgen, is dat omdat zij denken dat er sardientjes in de zee gegooid worden." - was retoriek op zijn best. De media is nooit zo scherpzinnig beledigd - de meeste journalisten kozen er publiekelijk voor het niet te begrijpen - Ha!
Out of Hand
(Airey, Gillan, Glover, Morse, Paice)
Shiny silver faces
Coloured paper falling into their hands
Never to be seen again
It must have been a one night stand
Up until the dawn
I could have sworn that everything was alright
Thieving bastards stole my life
And legged it off into the night
It's a dirty business
It's a dirty game
Everybody different
But they're all the same
They draw you in
You hear a siren call
Build you up
So they can see you fall
You've seen it all before
Been there since time began
You know what's coming next
Everything gets out of hand
They've got the lot and god knows what
They think that they deserve even more
Psychopathic tendencies
They've got a lot to answer for
Scratch my back and I'll stab yours
No wonder it's a universal sickness
Who are they you well might ask
Come with me and you can be my witness
It's a dirty business
It's a crying shame
You blink your eye
And all the laws have changed
They draw you in
You hear a siren call
Build you up
So they can see you fall
You've seen it all before
Been there since time began
You know what's coming next
Everything gets out of hand
It's a dirty business
It's a crying shame
You blink your eye
And all the laws have changed
They say the vulture
Is a bird of prey
No-one told me
It would come this way
You've seen it all before
Been there since time began
You know what's coming next
Everything
Everything gets out of hand
