| It started in the street, in the crazy summer heat
|
| In a place just on the edge of town
|
| Crowds were going wild, heroes had arrived
|
| Colours glistening in the sun
|
| Banners held high, touching the sky
|
| Flags of every nation
|
| Armies to the left, Armies to the right
|
| In a great anticipation
|
| Through the mist I saw machines of every shape and size
|
| Like new Messiahs you couls see the hunger in their eyes
|
| Hey — we raised our fists up the sky
|
| Sang our song with heads held high
|
| And told the world the best is yet to come
|
| We raced our cars and revved our bikes
|
| Headed out into the night
|
| And told the world the best is yet to come
|
| We met out in fields, with our masks and shields
|
| To celebrate the living
|
| Magic in the air, parties everywhere
|
| And the wine it kept on flowing
|
| Crazy looking freaks, a tribe that speaks
|
| In tongues not of this world
|
| Someone played a game that had no name
|
| And no-one really understood
|
| Through the mist I saw machines of every shape and size
|
| Like new Messiahs you couls see the hunger in their eyes
|
| Hey — we raised our fists up the sky
|
| Sang our song with heads held high
|
| And told the world the best is yet to come
|
| We raced our cars and revved our bikes
|
| Headed out into the night
|
| And told the world the best is yet to come
|
| Frank Sinatra sang on an old velve radio
|
| Oh I love New York
|
| A weathered one eyed piper
|
| Playing a marching tune
|
| La la la la la, la la la la la
|
| Through the mist I saw machines of every shape and size
|
| Like new Messiahs you couls see the hunger in their eyes
|
| We raised our fists up the sky
|
| Sang our song with heads held high
|
| And told the world the best is yet to come
|
| We raced our cars and revved our bikes
|
| Headed out into the night
|
| And told the world the best is yet to come
|
| We raised our fists up the sky
|
| Sang our song with heads held high
|
| And told the world the best is yet to come
|
| We raced our cars and revved our bikes
|
| Headed out into the night
|
| And told the world the best is yet to come |
