Nena - 99 Red Balloons Lyrics
You and I in a little toy shopBuy a bag of balloonsWith the money we've gotSet them free at the break of dawnTill one by one they were goneBack at base, bugs in the softwareFlash the message "Something's out there"Floating in the summer sky99 red balloons go by99 red balloons floating in the summer skyPanicked birds, it's red alertThere's something there from somewhere elseThe war machine springs to lifeOpens up one eager eyeFocuses it on the sky99 red balloons go by99 decisions treaty, 99 ministers meetsTo worry-worry, super scurryCall the troops out in a hurryThis is what we've waited forThis is it boys, this is warThe president is on the lineAs 99 red balloons go by99 knights of the air rideSuper hi-tech jet fightersEveryone's a super heroEveryone's a captain kirkWith orders to identifyTo clarify and classifyScramble in the summer sky99 red balloons go by99 dreams I have hadAnd every one a red balloonIt's all over and I'm standing prettyIn this dust that was a cityI could find a souvenierJust to prove the world was hereAnd here is a red balloonI think of you and let it go...
