Missing link crouched upon a promontory rock
|
Tryin' to figure out his biological clock.
|
No one around to announce his arrival
|
So he's got to get to work on his sense of survival
|
Oh Oh, it's a dangerous world.
|
|
Over in China they got smart real fast
|
That's where they invented the man made blast.
|
They lost a few infers and some bamboo shacks,
|
But they gave birth to a tribe of pyromaniacs.
|
|
Oh oh, it's a dangerous world.
|
Fire in the sky, lava in the ocean,
|
Sittin' round waitin' for the next explosion
|
|
Back in the fifties they thought it made good sense
|
To teach all the school children about civil defense.
|
Don't be scared, do not cry,
|
Just dive under your desk and kiss your ass goodbye.
|
|
Oh oh, such a dangerous world.
|
It was a hell of a hustle, paranoia promotion
|
Waiting at ground zero, for the next explosion.
|
|
Where you gonna be
|
When it hits the fan
|
Got a plan
|
What you gonna do
|
If it lands on you
|
Where's your point of view.
|
|
Down at the beach club there's a sales convention
|
Night sky is the focus of that crowd's attention.
|
It's no cosmic collision just a fireworks show,
|
But they feel it in their hearts when those
|
Concussion bombs blow.
|
|
Oh oh, such a dangerous world
|
Gunpowder's louder than Newton's laws of motion.
|
Everybody's waitin' for the next explosion.
|
|
Firs in the sky, fallin' on the ocean
|
Sittin' round waitin' for the next explosion.
