Sony Music Entertainment - 99 Luftballoons lyrics

Have you some time for me Then I'll sing a song for you About 99 balloons On their way to the horizon If you're perhaps thinking about me right now Then I'll sing a song for you About 99 balloons And that such a thing comes from such a thing 99 balloons On their way to the horizon People think they're UFO's from space So a general sent up A fighter squadron after them Sound the alarm if it's so But there on the horizon were Only 99 balloons 99 fighter jets Each one's a great warrior Thought they were Captain Kirk Then came a lot of fireworks The neighbors didn't understand anything And felt like they were being provoked So they shot at the horizon At 99 balloons 99 war ministers Matches and gasoline canisters They thought they were clever people Already smelled a nice bounty Called for war and wanted power Man, who would've thought That things would someday go so far Because of 99 balloons 99 years of war Left no room for victors There are no more war ministers Nor any jet fighters Today I'm making my rounds See the world lying in ruins I found a balloon Think of you and let it fly (away)
