Afternoons in Utopia - Alphaville

Acrobats & Comets are floating by so fast

Children’s faces S.M.I.L.E.

like suns at last

Lilac butterflies are cruising without fear

All inviting you to stay and rest here

You can halt your car

For an afternoon in Utopia

We shall stop the wars

On those afternoons in Utopia

Mighty Maomoondog drifts across the grass

Healing lullabies for Easter Time on Mars

Paint your hats and shoes with flowers and with stars

Singing to Metropolitan Operas

You can halt your car

For an afternoon in Utopia

We shall stop the wars

On those afternoons in Utopia
