Lyrics

Turn around and shield your eyes
Don't look back as the earth dies
No tomorrow for eternity'
The apocalyptic prophecy'
Few shall survive the final war'
Our futile lives shall be no more
Innocent victims of the nuclear glare
Are torn apart as they stand unaware
The whole world is radioactive
What's left of men now unproductive
None shall escape the fall-out rain
Our future life shall be steeped in pain
Feel the chill of the nuclear winds
Our planets downfall shall now begin
No excuse for the vast destruction
Caused by man with no
Comprehension
Life expectancy now decreases
As atomic warfare rapidly increases
Our foolish games, what have we
Learnt?
No time for sorrow as the world burns
