There's a new kind of challenge
it's colours are gold and blue
It's got a circle of stars
shining for me and you

Let's all give it a shot
ready or not
it's our destiny

Human blood is one colour
so let's make history

It's just a little step
in mankindis dream
one world united - in liberty

CHORUS
Thumbs up for Europe
Thumbs up for Europe
Thumbs up for Europe - you and me
Thumbs up Germany

So just say what you mean
and mean what you say - or shut up
It takes a whole lot of courage
to kill all your "ifs" and "buts"

I don't say that it's easy
we gotta be tough
so c'mon everybody - we're kickin' off

CHORUS
