Welcome, welcome
How do you do, what do you say?
Welcome to a new dark age
Let's go straight to bed

Yes, we do
Welcome to the new dark ages
Welcome to the new dark ages
Ooh, yeah
Only love can save us now
Love has become a four letter word

It's a scary thing
You believe in what's right
Take care, stop to think
Welcome to the new dark ages
Welcome to the new dark ages
Stop, take care, think
Is this real love?
And you feel in the night
Can this bad dream be true
It's a war that we fight
Don't let it happen to you
Welcome to the new dark ages
Welcome to the new dark ages
Welcome to the new dark ages
Welcome to the new dark ages
Welcome
New dark ages
Welcome to the new dark ages
Welcome to
New dark ages
New dark ages
