Globalize This Songtext
(Music: Thomas Kirschler)
(Lyrics: AdMeyer)

No one sees the things that I see
Right before my open eyes

Future winds are blowing icy
Baby, what a big surprise

Deep within and long forgotten
Lies the truth we knew so well

That if we just close our eyes
We'll behold the gates of hell

Someday in our father's land
When our dreams have turned to sand

We'll remind ourselves
Life was something else

When we still had a chance
To change the world

Globalize this!
Globalize this!

One day when our children ask me
What I've done to save this planet
I'll be running out of answers
'Cause they're so darn right, godammit!

Tell my boy to not go playing
Next to the atomic waste

See his mother staring at him
Tears roll down her weary face

What have we done?
What have we done?

Someday when the future ends
Will we finally understand

That we had it all
And still wanted more

But the world we once knew
Is gone for good

Globalize this!
Globalize this!

Stay out of the sun
And don't you stay outside too long
'Cause too much danger goes around out there my child!

When the sun will set
The hounds of darkness come to get
a bite of flesh and bone
Be home before tonight!

Globalize this!
Globalize this!
Yeah, globalize this!

Someday in our father's land
When our dreams have turned to sand

We'll remind ourselves
Life was something else

That we had it all
And still wanted more

(Thanks to Christian for these lyrics)
