Why do you give me so much gratitude ?

I
I will be King
And you
You will be Queen
Though nothing
Will drive them away
We can beat them
Just for one day
And we can be heroes
Just for one day

You
You can be mean
And I
I'll drink all the time
'Cause we're lovers
And that is a fact
Yes, we're lovers
And that is that

Nothing
Will keep us together
We could steal time
Just for one day
And we can be heroes
For ever and ever
What d'you say ?

I
I wish you could swim
Like the dolphins
The dolphins can swim
Though nothing
Nothing will keep us together
We can beat them
Forever and ever
And we can be heroes
Just for one day

I
I can remember
Standing by The Wall
The guns shot above our heads
And we kissed
As though nothing could fall
The shame was on the other side
Oh, we can beat them
Forever and ever
And we can be heroes
Just for one day

I
I will be King
And you
You will be Queen
Though nothing
Nothing will keep us together
We can beat them forever and ever
And we can be heroes
Just for one day

We can be heroes
We can be heroes just for one day
Just for one day
We can be heroes
We can be heroes

Tschüß.

Valley of the Kings

The bandits be my witnesses
His fault shall be my knife
His weapon be my innocence
The killer must not die

Is there a charge against my fate,
Can't I betray my hate ?
Will I regain my father's gait,
Must the killer die ?

The testament lies hidden from me
Underneath my sins.
A carriage will take me to
The valley of the Kings

Femme Fatale

Here she comes,
You'd better watch your step,
She's going to break your heart in two,
It's true.

It's not hard to realize,
Just look into her false colored eyes,
She'll build you up to just put you down,
What a clown.

'Cause everybody knows
  She's a femme fatale
The things she does to please
  She's a femme fatale
She's just a little tease
  She's a femme fatale
See the way she walks
Hear the way she talks.

You're written in her book,
You're number thirty-seven, have a look.
She's going to smile to make you frown,
What a clown.

Little boy, she's from the street.
Before you start you are already beat.
She's going to play you for a fool,
Yes, it's true.

'Cause everybody knows
  She's a femme fatale
The things she does to please
  She's a femme fatale
She's just a little tease
  She's a femme fatale
See the way she walks,
Hear the way she talks.

'Cause everybody knows
  She's a femme fatale
The things she does to please
  She's a femme fatale
She's just a little tease
  She's a femme fatale
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
  She's a femme fatale
  She's a femme fatale
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
  She's a femme fatale
