lyrics
You and I in a little toy shop
Buy a bag of balloons with the money we got
Set them free at the break of dawn
'til one by one, they were gone
Bag of base bugs in the softwear
flash the message: something's out there
floating in the summer sky
ninety nine red balloons go by
Ninety nine red balloons
floating in the summer sky
Ninety nine desisions straight
Ninety nine manesthers made
so hurry,hurry super scurry
call off the troops now in a hurry
this is what we've waited for
this is it boys, this is war
The president is on the line
as ninety nine red balloons go by
Ninety nine dreams I have had
and every one a red balloon
here I am now, standing pretty
In the dust that was a city
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP, representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are "hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the official GOLDFINGER tablature which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route. These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the NY Times Article. We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
