Tourist fun
Music: Harald Koll/ Mariëlla Tirotto
Lyrics: Mariëlla Tirotto
 
A cute little monkey does its tricks, tourists cheer and have fun
Iron chains around its neck make sure that it doesn’t run
The owner cares for one thing only: lots of money, that’s his goal
He pulls the chains a little bit harder, that’s his way of keeping control
                                                                                               
Is there no one to realize, the sadness in its eyes
No way out, the misery, will always be
Why don’t we interfere, put an end to the fear
It’s up to us, do I make myself clear?!
 
Donkeys collapsing under their load of fat and lazy cows,
who sat for hours on a boat, now still have the nerve to groan and moan
The owner cares for one thing only: lots of money, that’s his goal
He beats the donkeys a little bit harder, that’s his way of keeping control
 
Is there no one to realize, the sadness in their eyes
No way out, the misery, will always be
Why don’t we interfere, put an end to the fear
It’s up to us, do I make myself clear?!
 
Lots of stories I could tell, too gruesome to be heard
All of them about abuse of the beautiful creatures of this world
They say mankind is civilized, dream on, or better yet, wake up
The things that are done in the name of fun: it’s time they’re put to a stop
 
And we are all to blame, why don’t we feel ashamed
The suffering, the fear, the hurt, this song is a red alert 
Cause we can interfere, put an end to it all
So come on now, don’t ignore this call!
 
Hey , hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
It’s up to you and you and you and you and you and you
It’s up to us!!!
