Iron John |
| If you open up the cage |
| You will hurt yourself |
| The king said it’s forbidden |
| Or you will 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 saw |
| 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, hey-ho on Iron John |
| He has more gold |
| Than anybody 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 the business: |
| Running after number one.» |
| For all their childish daydreams |
| You caught their falling stars |
| Just for the cheapest contracts |
| You signed your autograph |
| And if you started much too early, therefore |
| You stopped too late |
| Make sure no one can stop you now |
| Here comes the ultimate |
| Let’s take a ride on Iron John’s shoulders |
| He has more gold than anybody in this world |
| Let’s take a ride, hey-ho on Iron John |
| He has more gold |
| Than anybody in this world |
| He will be with you, he will be there when you call out the magic words. |
| Let’s take a ride on Iron John’s shoulders |
| He has more gold than anybody in this world |
| Let’s take a ride, hey-ho on Iron John |
| He has more gold |
| Than anybody in this world |
| Let’s take a ride on Iron John’s shoulders |
| He has more gold than anybody in this world |
| Let’s take a ride, hey-ho on Iron John |
| He has more gold |
| Than anybody in this world |
