I don't speak German but I prefer that version. I like the way she says "Captain Kirk"

Here You Go, it's better from translated German, than the English Version
[Verse 1]
If you have some time for me
Then I will sing a song for you
Of ninety-nine balloons
On their way to the horizon
Are you perhaps thinking of me right now?
Then I will sing a song for you
Of ninety-nine balloons
And something that came of them
[Verse 2]
Ninety-nine balloons
On their way to the horizon
Were taken for UFOs from space
Hence, a general sent
A squadron after them
To give the alarm
But there, on the horizon
Were just ninety-nine balloons
[Verse 3]
Ninety-nine jet fighters
Each was a great warrior
Regarded themselves as Captain Kirk
There was a great display of fireworks
The neighbors didn't understand
And instantly felt offended
But they shot at the horizon
At ninety-nine balloons
[Verse 4]
Ninety-nine ministers of war
Matches and petrol canisters
Regarded themselves as clever people
Already on the scent of a hunt
They shouted, "War," and wanted power
Man, who would have thought?
That someday it would come this far
Because of ninety-nine balloons
[Bridge]
Because of ninety-nine balloons
Ninety-nine balloons
[Verse 5]
Ninety-nine years of war
Left no place for winners
War ministers don't exist anymore
Neither do the fighter jets
Today, I stroll around
See the world in ruins
I've found a balloon
I think of you and let it fly
[Verse 1]
