Alphaville - FOOLS lyrics

We waste our time with big illusions

Talking to the walls

But Jericho will never fall

We sold our trumpets long ago

Exchanging all the best we had

Into atomic master plans

We read the books, we had our chance

We spend the world for just one dance

So keep on dancing, all you fools

(Got to keep on dancing)

The cups of fury have been filled

So keep on dancing, all you clowns

(Got to keep on dancing)

Let's have a sip before we're killed

So keep on dancing

These politicians make me sigh

Democracy is just a lie

As long as we are rich enough

Each government will do for us

We feed like vampires on the world

We are the first, they are the third

There ain't no hope, we had our chance

We spend the world for one last dance

So keep on dancing, all you fools

(Got to keep on dancing)

The time to reap has finally come

So keep on dancing, all you clowns

(Got to keep on dancing)

We had our chance, let's have some fun

So keep on dancing, all you fools

(Got to keep on dancing)

The cups of fury have been filled

So keep on dancing, all you clowns

(Got to keep on dancing)

Let's have a sip before we're killed

So keep on dancing

Keep on... Got to keep on dancing

Seven seals, seven trumpets, seven cups

Seven plagues, seven angels

The scarlet beast, mother of harlots

Faithful and true

Got to keep on dancing
