Lyrcis:
URANIUM
Here’s to a lost story
With no moral to it
We live below every stone you have left unturned
What the world hasn’t got
This the world has to get
Now the sun in the box is also what we need
Gone the combustibles, black and brown
The old and reliable diesels growl
We need the light and the heat
As well, the clean air to breath
Now the necessary power is a-killin’ us
We need to box us a sun
We need the God Fire
But we shan’t tickle the dragon’s tail
(CHORUS)Heading up to the quarry
Maybe the end isn’t necessary
But we need uranium, we need uranium
Box lead lined, contains light
Once every nation has it
Denial, poker face
Here comes the battle for the title of
The Death Bow as you’re entering the
Altar of technology
Bravest of fools, entitled to
Be called an idiocracy
We need uranium, we need you
We need your Cranium
We need you
(CHORUS)
Let’s meet up at the quarry
Forging the future is necessary
We need uranium, we need uranium
Rich, refined, contains light Greed and lies are buried
No, the past ain’t what you’ll inherit
We need uranium, we need uranium
From the caves underneath the capitols we can spy your lives
All your leaders’ communiques… any word can mean anything
Once we get what we need, we have power to build this world
Our kingdom of none underground, where the steam engines
Shall be powered by a man made sun
(CHORUS)
Heading up to the quarry
Forging the future is necessary
We need uranium, we need uranium
Rich, refined, contains light
The lies and dead are buried
My son, the past ain’t what you’ll inherit
We need uranium, we need uranium
Now the future, behold, shining bright as the morning sun
We need uranium, we need uranium
Uranium, sunUranium, light
Uranium, heatUranium, steam
We need uranium…
