99 Red Balloons

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
Till, 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
Focussing it on the sky
99 red balloons go by

99 Decision street
99 ministers meet
To worry worry super-scurry
Call the troops out 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 knights of the air
Ride super hi-tech jet fighters
Everyone's a superhero
Everyone's a Captain Kirk
With orders to identify
To clarify and classify
Scramble in the summer sky
99 red balloons go by
As 99 red balloons go by

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