Living in a cruel world Trudging with my feet in the snow On a day out And into the night now Doctor, I've been walking on the side of the road for a long time And I'm going out of my mind It's so far from me now But oh, I can hear the sounds It's so far from me now But oh, I can hear the sounds It's so far from me now But oh, I can hear the sounds It's so far from me now But oh, I can hear the sounds Can't you hear the bells sing in Cologne? You won't hear it on the radio Madness is the hero carnival Can't you hear the bells? Sitting on the rooftops Crazy days are coming again I've been running But I'll be hidden in the masquerade So far from me now But oh, I can hear the sounds It's so far from me now Oh, I can hear the sounds Can't you hear the bells sing in Cologne? You won't hear it on the radio Madness is the hero carnival Can't you hear the bells? So far from me now, oh I can hear the sounds So far from me now, oh I can hear the sounds So far from me now, oh I can hear the sounds So far from me now, oh I can hear the sounds Can't you hear the bells sing in Cologne? You won't hear it on the radio Madness is the hero carnival You won't hear it on the radio Can't you hear the bells sing in Cologne? You won't hear it on the radio Madness is the hero carnival Can't you hear the bells sing in Cologne?
