It was said to be about main-lining heroin but the band denied it. This bit though made me think definitely, maybe. "There she goes again... racing through my brain... pulsing through my vein... no one else can heal my pain" |  |

It wasn't until Angela Merkel became well known that I realised the true lyric for that song. And, of course, another politician of that era had a song about him... 'Obama's Elf' (by Eric Carmen). |  |
