Iron John lyrics
by Alphaville
If you open up the cage, you will hurt yourselfThe King said it's forbidden or you may get hellBut the prisoner lets you know where to find the keyUnder her satin pillow, yes, there it has to beModesty is fine, but it doesn't get you very farWhen you make your decision, don't be afraid of the darkLonging for the golden ball, that it will be yours for keepsBe sure about it as you sow, so shall you reapLet's take a ride on Iron John's shouldersHe has more gold than anybody in this worldLet's take a ride, heigh-ho on Iron JohnHe has more gold than anyone in this worldJump on the train to nowhere, from now on you are freeAfter rising from the ashes, you'll become a mysteryToo many of those strange injections, too many gazes at the sunThe lady smiled "Well, that's my business, running after number 1"For all their childish daydreams, you caught their falling starsJust for the cheapest contracts, you signed your autographsAnd if you started much too early, therefore you've stopped too late----Make sure that no one stops you nowHere comes the ultimateLet's take a ride on Iron John's shoulders...He will be with you, he will be thereIf you call out the magic wordsLet's take a ride on Iron John's shoulders...
