You and I in a little toy shop
|
buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got
|
Set them free at the break of dawn
|
'Til one by one, they were gone
|
Back at base, bugs in the software
|
Flash the message, "Something's out there"
|
Floating in the summer sky
|
99 red balloons go by.
|
|
99 red balloons floating in the summer sky
|
Panic bells, it's red alert
|
There's something here from somewhere else
|
The war machine springs to life
|
Opens up one eager eye
|
Focusing it on the sky
|
As 99 red balloons go by.
|
|
99 Decision Street, 99 ministers meet
|
To worry, worry, super-scurry
|
Call out the troops now in a hurry
|
This is what we've waited for
|
This is it boys, this is war
|
The president is on the line
|
As 99 red balloons go by.
|
|
99 Kriegsminister
|
Streichholz und Benzinkanister
|
Hielten sich fuer schlaue Leute
|
Witterten schon fette Beute
|
Riefen: Krieg und wollten Macht
|
Mann, wer haette das gedacht
|
Dass es einmal soweit kommt
|
Wegen 99 Luftballons
|
|
99 dreams I have had
|
In every one a red balloon
|
It's all over and I'm standin' pretty
|
In the dust that was a city
|
If I could find a souvenier
|
Just to prove the world was here...
|
And here it is, a red balloon
|
I think of you and let it go.
