Lyrics
Twenty Minutes
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I wonder what we'll be doin' and
Where we might be
When they hit the button and
All hell is set free.
Will the kids be in school?
Will you be on your own?
How much time will we have?
An' will we manage to get home?
Those in the city go first
Then those on the outskirts
Twenty minutes then us.
We could make a fall-out shelter
We got nothin' to lose
We could make a fall-out shelter
What else can we choose?
When the stars come out tonight
And the heavens are calm
Will they make the big mistake
And drop the bomb?
Will the kids be asleep?
Will you be on your own?
How much time will we have?
An' will I manage to get home?
Those in the city go first
Then those on the outskirts
Twenty minutes is all.
I could make a fall-out shelter
We got nothin' to lose
I could make a fall-out shelter
What else can we choose?
Those in the city go first
Then those on the outskirts
Twenty minutes then us.
We could make a fall-out shelter
We got nothin' to lose
We could make a fall-out shelter
What else can we choose?
We could make a fall-out shelter
We should make some plans
We could make a fall-out shelter
We might stand a chance.
