lyrics

Nations saw it coming the signs were there
Nobody listened, nobody cared
People demonstrated again and again
Every warning was all in vain

Sirens rang out the outcome was clear
Death and destruction were drawing near
Mankind destroyed with nuclear know-how
Wasted lives, no tears to flow
Try to get home, run for your life
A few may live but millions will die
Pushing and jostling, all wasted time
As the bombs drop slowly from the sky

Blinding light makes the eyes go blank
Split second later, shock wave attack
Flesh in the street laying burnt and scarred
Millions massacred no time to laugh
Show of strength that went too far
Superpowers overstepped the mark
Declared in a minute and finished in five
Ordinary people suffered with their lives

Nations saw it coming the signs were there
Nobody listened, nobody cared
People demonstrated again and again
Every warning was all in vain
Show of strength that went too far
Superpowers overstepped the mark
Declared in a minute and finished in five
Ordinary people suffered with their lives
