Red Alert

We were on the Russian border When the news began to break Of a nuclear reactor melting down Sending deadly clouds of dust Into the atmosphere Falling down like rain on the ground We were laying in the sun Listening to the radio When someone said you'd better get inside We didn't know how serious the situation was That many people to the North had died Red alert, red alert (*) Screaming in my head There's something I'm not sure of going down Red alert, red alert Screaming in the night That fallout seems to follow me around We made our way to Hungary Thinking we were safe there from the storm But the deadly cloud was high above taken by the wind Spreading like a plague across the land A threat you couldn't see Nothing you could feel But something evil floating in the air Look towards the East The danger yet to come For the Earth We made a silent prayer (Repeat *)
