Alphaville

Alphaville - Iron John lyrics

The King said it's forbidden or you may get hell

But the prisoner lets you know where to find the key

Under her satin pillow, yes, there it has to be

Modesty is fine, but it doesn't get you very far

When you make your decision, don't be afraid of the dark

Longing for the golden ball, that it will be yours for keeps

Be sure about it as you sow, so shall you reap

Let's take a ride on Iron John's shoulders

He has more gold than anybody in this world

Let's take a ride, heigh-ho on Iron John

He has more gold than anyone in this world

Jump on the train to nowhere, from now on you are free

After rising from the ashes, you'll become a mystery

Too many of those strange injections, too many gazes at the sun

The lady smiled "Well, that's my business, running after number 1"

For all their childish daydreams, you caught their falling stars

Just for the cheapest contracts, you signed your autographs

And if you started much too early, therefore you've stopped too late--

--Make sure that no one stops you now

Here comes the ultimate

Let's take a ride on Iron John's shoulders...

He will be with you, he will be there

If you call out the magic words

Let's take a ride on Iron John's shoulders
