You and I in a little toy show, buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got, set them free at the break of dawn, to one by one they were gone.
Back at base, box in the software, flash the message, something's out there, floating in the summer sky, 99 red balloons go by.
Music
99 red balloons, floating in the summer sky, panic bell that's red alert, there's something here from somewhere red, the war machine springs to life, opens up one eager eye, focusing in on the sky, 99 red balloons go by.
Music
99 decisions tree, 99 ministers meet, to worry, worry super scary, call the troops out in a hurry, this is what we've waited for, this is advice, this is war, the president is on the line, 99 revolution go by.
Music
99 nights of the air, while super high-tech jet fighters, everyone's a superhero, everyone's a captain girl, with orders to identify, to clarify and classify, scramble in the summer sky, 99 red balloons go by.
Music
99 dreams I have had, and everyone a red balloon, it's all over and I'm standing pretty, in the stars that were the city, I could find a souvenir, just to prove the world was here.
