Nobody knew – the future was ours to hold
Seer of visions, or teller of lies?
What could he do – when destiny was foretold
You could see the anguish in his eyes
Get down crescendo!

Haunted by fear – and dreaming of things to come
A computer-age, and nuclear wars
Shadows appear – but where are they comin’ from?
And he can’t make them go away
Get down crescendo!

Nobody cared – they treated him like a fool
Whenever he spoke, people turned away
Then they got scared – what if it would be true?
The bringer of evil had to die
Get down crescendo!

He knew it was time – he stoof on the brink of fame
His powers were growing, his message would be shared
Killed in his prime – nobody knew his name
His life, a crescendo that never peaked
He will always be known as…

Poor crescendo – capture the rainbow
Embrace the colours, and gather the sunbeams
Poor crescendo – let your tears flow
Come sail away, on an ocean of dreams
