Alphaville Headlines song lyrics

We call ourselves the crown of creation

I wonder what does it mean

We're not the owners of the moon and the earth

It's like a roundabout and it goes round and round for free

We've made some gruesome inventions

Yet we're mastered by those systems

We're endangered danger, we're running out of fashion

If we don't care for responsibility, hey-hey

We're endangered danger, we're endangered danger

We're the headlines today, but all what they say is

We're endangered danger

Eric says that we're a lonely species

That's why we're playing the fools

But once we'll enter the Aquarian Age

I sometimes catch him floating in his swimming-pool, he says

If we'd tune in to our brighter sides

We'd feel like Jesus on the waters

Cause we're sailors not soldiers, so much more for this show

Than a guest-appearance in the universe, here we go

We're endangered danger, we're endangered danger

We're the headlines today, but all what they say is

We're endangered danger

Like Thunder

If I was a flag I'd have no nation

Just the colours and the wind

And if I was a church I'd have no treasure

Except the prayers and the hyms

And if I was a seagull I'd just rise up

And carry my soul across the sea

Drifting beyond the horizon

Lost by the ground to be free

If I was a life-boat I'd be waiting all my life

For another stormy day

And if I was a dolphin I'd be playing all the time

Just playing my life away

And if I was a kite I'd just be laughing

And dragging you up to the sky

Setting you down on a white cloud

While a seagull's floating by

And the silence roars like thunder
