Orphans Songtext
von Coldplay

I wanna know when I can go
Back and get drunk with my friends
Boom-boom-ka, buba-de-ka
Boom-boom-ka, buba-de-ka
Boom-boom-ka, buba-de-ka

Rosaleem of the Damascene
Yes, she had eyes like the moon
Would have been on the silver screen
But for the missile monsoon

She went
Woo-woo, woo-woo, ooh-ooh-ooh
Indigo up in heaven today
Woo-woo, woo-woo, ooh-ooh-ooh
Bombs going boom, bo-bo-boom
She say

"I wanna know when I can go
Back and get drunk with my friends
I wanna know when I can go
Back and be young again"


Baba would go where the flowers grow
Almond and peach trees in bloom
And he would know just when and what to sow
So golden and opportune

But he went
Woo-woo, woo-woo, ooh-ooh-ooh
Tulips the colour of honey today
It′s true, true, woo-woo, ooh-ooh-ooh
Bombs going boom, bo-bo-boom
He say

"Oh, I wanna know when I can go
Back and get drunk with my friends
I wanna know when I can go
Back and be young again" (yeah)

Woo-woo, woo-woo, ooh-ooh-ooh
Woo-woo, woo-woo, ooh-ooh-ooh
Cherubim, Seraphim, soon
Come sailing us home by the light of the moon

Oh, I wanna know when I can go
Back and get drunk with my friends
I wanna know when I can go
Back and feel home again


Woo-woo, woo-woo, ooh-ooh-ooh
I guess we'll be raised on our own then
Woo-woo, woo-woo, ooh-ooh-ooh
′Cause I wanna be with you 'til the world ends
I wanna be with you 'til the whole world ends

Boom-boom-ka, buba-de-ka
Boom-boom-ka, buba-de-ka
Boom-boom-ka, buba-de-ka
Boom-boom-ka, buba-de-ka
Boom
