Europe, Europe

Wake up, wake up

Can't you see your children lined up

On the edge of the abyss they wait?



Europe, Europe

Fucked up, fucked up

Scared to go to sleep, they stay up

Prisoners of fate



Lalelu

Someone's got their eye on you

Now the poorest kids are sleeping

You should sleep too



Lalelu

And the little hearts freeze through

When the other kids are calling

You're worthless too



Sandman, Sandman

Please put out the lights

The truth is a big scam

So let me dream tonight



Sandman, Sandman

Stand here by my side

Sprinkle stardust into my eyes

And let me sleep 'til I die



Europe, Europe

Wake up, wake up

Can't you see your children hate us?

Slowly, surely they are damned to fail



Europe, Europe

Pumped up, pumped up

Like a big casino gone bust

Everyone's for sale



Lalelu

Someone's got their eye on you

Now the poorest kids are sleeping

You should sleep too



Lalelu

And the little hearts freeze through

When the other kids are calling

You're worthless too



Sandman, Sandman

Please put out the lights

The truth is a big scam

So let me dream tonight



Sandman, Sandman

Stand here by my side

Sprinkle stardust into my eyes

And let me sleep 'til I die



"Let them eat cake", someone said

But all the children want is bread

Screaming their lungs out every night

The hunger burning deep inside



"Let them eat cake", someone said

Until the day she lost her head

Let me show you prosperity

Where children long for what they need



Sandman, Sandman

Please put out the lights

The truth is a big scam

So let me dream tonight



Sandman, Sandman

Stand here by my side

Sprinkle stardust into my eyes

And let me sleep 'til I die
