In the heat of the moment
In the dark of the night
You never see his face
For he's the ghost inside
In the heat of the moment
He will laugh at you
How can you make peace
When he's at war with you
In the heat of the moment
You're a perfect guy
Born to make mistakes
He knows the reason why
He's a shock to the system
He's a wicked clown
No matter what you do
He turns it upside down
Hu hu hu hu hu hu
Ghost in the machinery
Hu hu hu hu hu hu
Ghost in the machinery
Hu hu hu hu hu hu
In the light of a new love
In the dark of night
You can fall asleep
And dream he's out of sight
In the eyes of the children
You can read his name
They'll make the same mistakes
And that's the only way
The only way
Hu hu hu hu hu hu
Ghost in the machinery
