Hiroshima Nagasaki Russian Roulette - Moving Hearts[00:00:00]
They dropped the bomb[00:00:24]
In '45 to end the world war [00:00:25]
No-one had ever seen[00:00:28]
Such a terrible sight before [00:00:30]
The world looked on with eyes[00:00:31]
Wide to see where it might lead [00:00:33]
The politics of power [00:00:35]
They passed around to see [00:00:37]
It was a time to remember [00:00:38]
We never can forget [00:00:41]
They were playin' Hiroshima [00:00:42]
Nagasaki Russian Roulette [00:00:44]
They arose like the saviours[00:00:49]
Of our modern human race [00:00:51]
With radiation haloes [00:00:54]
That hung about their face [00:00:56]
With the key to the sure-cure [00:00:57]
The treatment of our ills [00:00:59]
A hot-shot of cobalt [00:01:01]
And a pocket-full of pills [00:01:03]
Speaking always of the enemy [00:01:04]
Who lurked across the sea [00:01:06]
While they crept in among us[00:01:08]
Like a carrier disease [00:01:10]
Deep down inside the bunkers[00:01:16]
Of the concrete and the lead [00:01:17]
Einstein's disciples working steadily ahead [00:01:20]
Making heavy metal power-plants to fire the city lights [00:01:23]
All you can hear in the underground[00:01:27]
Is the humming through the night [00:01:29]
And the walls of tight security [00:01:30]
Circle all around [00:01:32]
Where they spill out their poison[00:01:34]
And bury it in the ground [00:01:36]
Holed up in the harbours hidden secretly away [00:01:42]
War-heads and submarines await to make their play [00:01:45]
The military masterminds improve on their design [00:01:49]
The soldiers get all doped up[00:01:53]
And stumble through the lines [00:01:54]
While the spills into the rivers[00:01:56]
Get carried out by the tide [00:01:58]
They call this security but we're not satisfied [00:02:00]
Our statesmen and leaders and politicians pay [00:02:33]
Quick to heed the hand that feeds [00:02:37]
They're careful what they say [00:02:39]
They call out experts to assure us [00:02:41]
To wave their magic wands [00:02:43]
This is the power of the future [00:02:45]
And the future marches on [00:02:46]
And they call in their favours [00:02:48]
All their political gains [00:02:50]
While the spills fill the rivers[00:02:52]
And settle in the plains [00:02:54]
They've caused the death of millions [00:03:00]
That's their stock and trade [00:03:01]
They will be afflicted[00:03:03]
By the fallout that they've made [00:03:04]
They've sealed their own inevitable doom [00:03:07]
It must surely come [00:03:09]
Not even the moons of Jupiter[00:03:10]
Will be far enough away to run [00:03:12]
When this earth that they've assaulted [00:03:14]
Begins to turn around [00:03:16]
And the unavoidable gravity [00:03:18]
Sucks them to the ground [00:03:20]
I know the minds behind them [00:03:26]
They are riddled full of holes [00:03:27]
Not to be trusted with their hands at the controls [00:03:29]
Their eyesight it is twisted[00:03:33]
By the glory of their careers [00:03:34]
The heaped praise[00:03:37]
And flattery is music to their ears [00:03:37]
To listen to them talk about[00:03:40]
How it hasn't happened [00:03:42]
Yet's like playing Hiroshima [00:03:43]
Nagasaki Russian Roulette [00:03:45]
Hiroshima Nagasaki Russian Roulette [00:03:48]
Hiroshima Nagasaki Russian Roulette[00:03:51]
