Do you have some time for me
About ninety-nine balloons
On their way to the horizon
Maybe you're thinking of me right now
About ninety-nine balloons
And that something like this comes from something like that
Were taken for UFOs from space
A fighter squadron after them
To sound the alarm if that was so
Only ninety-nine balloons
Each was a mighty warrior
They thought they were Captain Kirk
There was a big fireworks display
The neighbors didn't get a thing
And felt provoked right away
Meanwhile they shot at the horizon
At ninety-nine balloons
Ninety-nine war ministers
Matches and gasoline cans
Thought they were clever people
Already sniffed out fat loot
Cried for war and wanted power
Man, who would've thought
That it'd ever come to this
Over ninety-nine balloons
Over ninety-nine balloons
Ninety-nine balloons
There're no war ministers anymore
And no jet fighters either
I see the world in ruins
Think of you and let it fly
