Nuclear Waste
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.
Madam I'd like to assure you that this little
Domestic reactor will never cause you any trouble
Nuclear Waste - we don't want that
Nuclear Waste - we don't need that
Atomic Power - we've got to leave this
Nuclear Age behind in our t-t-time
A faste breeder breaks all the rules
Gives us something for nothing - that ain't true
And who makes the profit? - not me and you
And who runs the risks? - we all do!
Nuclear Fear - we don't want that
Nuclear Waste - we can't get rid of that
Nuclear Power - you're hoping we'll get used to it
Nuclear Accidents- I've had enough of it.
Do you find it attractive to be radioactive
Emitting killing rays?
Splitting your atoms with a fission reaction
Transmitting out of phase?
Strontium 90
I wanna live to see 1999
There's enough energy in the air and in the sea
To give us Power to live Peace and Harmony
Nuclear Waste - we don't get used to your
Nuclear Waste - Ultimate polution
Radiation - produces mutation
Disintegration - it's not evolution
Nuclear Children - you have the solution
New Killer Waste - better active today
Than radioactive tomorrow
New Kiler Waste - need a cure for cancer?
Or you field - need the real answer
Or maybe solar - fusion nor fission
Oh darling! - let me put my arms around you
Nuclear Waste - jamming my transmission
Nuclear Waste - damaging my vision
Nuclear Waste
