Europe is haunted
By the ghost of the past
Peace hasn't broken now
How long will it last
Old folks are dying
The young where are the birth
But everyone is happy
It's heaven on earth
And it's heaven when the police are English
The Italians are lovers
The French the cooks
The engineers are the Germans
And the Swiss organize everything by the book
The churches are hippie
And bellies are full
Jesus say feel my sheep
But there ain't no wool
And into the past
No one wants to dwell
Cuz disturbing the peace
Only raise a hell
And it's hell when the police are German
The Swiss are the lovers
The English the cooks
The engineers are the French
And Italians organize everything by the book
Wherever I go
I hear this single tale
But I know a place between heaven and hell
We will rendezvous
Continental blues
Dancin' night away
Singin' my blues and say
Continental blues
hmmmmmm
Continental blues
