Goldfinger - 99 Red Balloons - Lyrics

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
Ninety-nine red balloons go by

Ninety-nine 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 ninety-nine red balloons go by

Ninety-nine decisions street
Ninety-nine 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 ninety-nine red balloons go by

Neunundneunzig Kriegsminister
Streichholz und Benzinkanister
Hielten sich f?r schlaue Leute
Witterten schon fette Beute
Riefen: Krieg und wollten Macht
Mann, wer h?tte das gedacht?
Da? es einmal so weit kommt
Wegen neunundneunzig Luftballons
Neunundneunzig Luftballons

Ninety-nine dreams I have had
And every one a red balloon
It's all over, and I'm standing pretty
In the dust that was a city
I could find a souvenir
Just to prove the world was here
Here it is, a red balloon
I think of you and let it go

One of the best covers I've ever heard. It's right up there with Since U Been Gone by A Day to Remember.

[ForHisNameSake1236]

Can anyone translate the last verse? I've learned to sing it in German but I'd still like to know what I'm saying :)

[Calvardeg]

@WW3ization You know what, you may be right, but I still hope it is about two kids making fun of the society.

I think it is more beautiful this way.

[WW3ization]

@AbiLovesYouLots Thank you. Balloons represent government's false flag to start a war.

[AbiLovesYouLots]

@WW3ization Never thought of it like that before, but yeah it makes sense. Sad, but powerful.

[MntDewAssassination]
