lyrics

The flowers in the garden have curled up and died
Reading the thermometer, it's cold outside
They said the sun is shining but the skies are grey
Knocked out of orbit by the gamma rays
Radio transmissions from another place
Can't tell where it's coming from, it's hard to trace
Counting down from 40, 30, 20, 10
And when you get to zero, do it all again

And out of nowhere comes a hurricane
Destroy the atmosphere and we start again
Load up the future and the past is all laid bare
Make up for space ideals, I'm not going there

The legacy of years gone by is not far behind
Stories of a human race are all I find
Head into the mountains for a fresh new start
The thinning of the air heals a lonely heart
Meanwhile in the city, the border's shut
And panic in the streets because the power's cut
Crawl into the bunker through the acid rain
And don't move a muscle 'til it's safe again

And out of nowhere comes a hurricane
Destroy the atmosphere and we start again
Roll back the future and the past is all laid bare
Make up for space ideals, I'm not going there

And out of nowhere comes a hurricane
Destroy the atmosphere and we start again
Roll back the future and the past is all laid bare
Make up for space ideals, I'm not going there
