Oh, ah 
Decadence 
Yeah 

They're counting down on the doomsday show 
The president, government, running wild 
It's written on the wall 
A minute to go 
Might as well 
Go out in style 
Dressed to kill 
For the final fling 
Let's party while the empire falls 
In the arms of some Romeo 
This is the way to forget it all 
Dancing chic to chic 

(Chorus) 
Decadence avec elegance 
Decadence avec elegance 
Oh, woh-woh, oh, woh-woh 
Oh, woh-woh, yeah 

Monkey see, monkey do, ooh 
Pass around the pink champagne 
Drink to the human zoo 
Mambo jumbo 
Then one last tango 
Auf wiedersehen 

Better to live on reckless night 
Than a thousand nights of security 
Decadence, mondo cane, raising hell 
A night of glory 
And rest in peace (peace, peace, peace) 

(Chorus) 

E-O-E-O 
Decadência, ooh 
Bunda, bunda... e... bunda, bunda 
E ela me diz que seja um bom rapaz 
Pratique algum esporte, tenha bons ideais 
Afinal de contas, o fim do mundo 
Não é nem o fim do mundo 
E se for, descanse em paz 

They're counting down on the doomsday show (ten, nine, eight, seven) 
The clock on the wall says 
A minute to go, ooh 
A minute to go, ooh 
A minute to go, ooh 

(Chorus) 
Decadence
