| Well did you hear about the story of the red balloon
|
| Little Johnny, he was called to be the captain of the crew
|
| He went aboard the ship and said: «We're gonna leave here soon»
|
| Little Johnny’s selling tickets to the moon
|
| «So hurry if you want to come along with me today»
|
| He says, and then the band begins to play
|
| And this my friend is a wonderland
|
| So hold my hand
|
| They were singing with the band, band, band
|
| For all we need’s a breeze in the air
|
| Rushing over mountains, watching the surroundings
|
| The captain gives the orders and we all obey
|
| And this my friend is a wonderland
|
| So hold my hand
|
| They were singing with the band, band, band
|
| For all we need’s a breeze in the air
|
| Rushing over mountains, watching the surroundings
|
| The captain gives the orders and we all obey
|
| One day when Johnny tried to get it down, that red balloon
|
| He found out he never learned that trick the others didn’t too
|
| And so they moved up higher and they realized it soon
|
| They were really going to be there on the moon
|
| The people down below they shouted and they were afraid
|
| But still there was the band for them to play
|
| (Up there, up there, they’re going on, they’re going on)
|
| And this my friend is a wonderland
|
| So hold my hand
|
| They were singing with the band, band, band
|
| For all we need’s a breeze in the air
|
| Rushing over mountains, watching the surroundings
|
| The captain gives the orders and we all obey
|
| And this my friend is a wonderland
|
| So hold my hand
|
| They were singing with the band, band, band
|
| For all we need’s a breeze in the air
|
| Rushing over mountains, watching the surroundings
|
| The captain gives the orders and we all obey
|
| Well here my friends, my story ends
|
| They story of the year
|
| But we’re living in a crazy world
