Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
A distant power plant Built from scrap metal from the war I'm on the graveyard shift I'm all alone, close to the core Caught in a lab, in a maintenance room is where I dwell Splitting atoms for a living... hell I hear a distant noise Some crucial levels have been reached On the surveillance screen The primary containment has been breached (And the warning message goes something like this) There is a partial core melt There's a disaster close at hand The cooling systems Are too unstable And there are things here that I really should disarm Before the sound of the alarm A lockdown sequence rolls The mainframe's going bluescreen and then blank I feel a sudden cold And strange vibrations from that septic tank My radiation suit Is full of holes and doesn't fit This place does not compute And finally I think it's time to quit Which won't happen 'cause the place is going down I watch the cracking walls And big machines falling apart The banging water hammers Hold with the beating of my heart As the fallout might really do me harm I hear the sound of the alarm Caught in lab in a massive heap of debris Crushed by junk and I can't break free Not going anywhere! I'm out of options, out of time I'm running out of air The pipes around are leaking with slime (Some glowing stuff I usually do not touch) I feel the water boil Somehow I don't feel any fear This radioactive coil Is signalling the end of my career I sing the meltdown countdown In a few minutes I'll be toast Level seven I'm gonna roast But like the captain on a sinking ship I am staying on my post And I go nuclear as the skin melts on my arm To the sound of the alarm To the sound of the alarm
