This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Europe
Wake up
Can you see your children lined up
On the edge of the abyss they wait?
Europe
Fucked up
Scared to go asleep they stay up
Prisoners of pain.
La Le Lu
Someone's got their eye on you
Now the poorest kids are sleeping
You should sleep too
La Le Lu
And their little hearts freeze through
When the other kids are calling
You're worthless too
Sandman sandman
Please put out the light
The truth is a big scam
So let me dream tonight
Sandman sandman
Standing by my side
Sprinkle star dust into my eyes
And let me sleep 'til I die
Europe
Wake up
Can you see you children hate us
Slowly surely they are damned to fail
Europe
Pumped up
Like a big casino gone bust
Everyone's for sale
La Le Lu
Someone's got their eye on you
Now the poorest kids are sleeping
You should sleep too
La Le Lu
And their little hearts freeze through
When the other kids are calling
You're worthless too.
Sandman sandman
Please put out the light
The truth is a big scam
So let me dream tonight
Sandman sandman
Standing by my side
Sprinkle star dust into my eyes
And let me sleep 'til I die
Let them eat cake someone said
All the children want is bread
Screaming their hearts out every night
Their 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 light
The truth is a big scam
So let me dream tonight
Sandman sandman
Standing by my side
Sprinkle star dust into my eyes
And let me sleep 'til I die
*Everything should be corrected now :)
