Из альбома: Big World

Here in berlin — people line up to get in To wait for the end — living in glorious sin
Theyve looked around — and now there is no looking back
To when rivers ran red — now its the sky that grows black
Shadows are cast as two giants roam over the earth
We light a match — but what is that little flame worth
Once allies danced and sang
But it was forty years ago
Here in d.c. — they talk about euro-disease
And how the french are always so damn hard to please
Otions are passed in brussels but no one agrees
And no one walks tall — but no-one gets down on their knees
Once allies laughed and drank
But it was forty years ago
Where I come from
They dont like americans much
They think theyre so loud, so tasteless, and so out of touch
Stiff upper lips are curled into permanent sneers
Self-satisfied
Awaiting the next forty years
Once allies cried and cheered
But it was forty years ago
