Intermezzo II: Opportunity

Song: Opportunity Artist: Joan Armatrading Album: Show Some Emotion

Opportunity came to my door when I was down on my luck. In the shape of an old friend With a plan guaranteed.

Showed me the papers as he walked me to the car, his shoes of finest leather. He said you could wear this style if you follow my advice.

He owned a gun, the calibre escaped me, but I noticed straight away it made me itch. Carried an address with numbers on the back and an L-shaped bar of iron.

What's that for I asked my man with eyes wide opened and the knowledge in my head.

And he said opportunity, world wide adventure, money in the bank.

We did the job, the work was so well done, no one saw us coming, much less leave. But what I dropped carried my credentials and a black/white shot of you and me.

What's that for I asked the cop with eyes of innocence and the knowledge in my head.

And he said opportunity, world wide adventure, let me have your hand.

 

This sure is good stuff!

Thanks for reminding me of the good ol' times.

Oracle is now mentioned in the English Wikipedia article on teletext and even has its own article here. Electra has one too.

Should be
pretty easy to guess from the context and image who HaFi and InTu are. Besides, thx for the hint to the open bold-tag.
