Iron John Lyrics by Alphaville

Iron John Lyrics

    If you open up the cage
    You will hurt yourself
    The king said it's forbidden
    Or you may get hell
    But the prisoner lets you know
    Where to find the key
    Under her satin pillow
    Yes, there it has to be
    Modesty is fine but it doesn't take you very far
    When you make your decision
    Don't be afraid of the dark
    Longing for the golden ball
    That it will be yours for keeps
    Be sure about it as you saw
    So shall you reap

    Lets take a ride on iron john's shoulders
    He has more gold than anybody in this world
    Lets tak a ride, hey-ho on iron john
    He has more gold
    Than anybody in this world

    Jump on the train to nowhere
    From now on you are free
    After rising from the ashes
    You'll become a mystery
    Too many of those strange injections, too many gazes at the sun
    The lady says, well that's the business, running after no.1
    For all their childish daydreams you caught their falling stars
    Just for the cheapest contracts you signed your autograph
    And if you started much too early, therefore you stopped too late
    Make sure no one can stop you now, here comes the ultimate

    He will be with you, he will be there when you call out the magic words..
