Ground Zero Brooklyn Lyrics


Home watching Star Trek, everything's okay

Little do I know

Soviet missiles are on the way

The bastards set loose the war gods Tyr and Loki

Weatherman's predicting rain but fire it'll be

Minutemen launching

Air sirens haunting

Warheads detonating

Cremating

I'm living at - Ground Zero

I'm dying at - Ground Zero

I'm burning at - Ground Zero

I'm frying at - Ground Zero

From my bed I hear the sirens, screaming of foreboding

Populous escaping highways overloading

Bridge is down, tunnel's flooded, only got six minutes

Head between my legs, I kiss my balls goodbye - they're finished

Mx's blasting, skyscrapers crashing

Fall out liberated, we're wasted

I'm living at - Ground Zero

I'm dying at - Ground Zero

I'm burning at - Ground Zero

I'm frying at - Ground Zero

Jesus I beg of thee

Don't take my life

Return me to the womb from which I was torn

Birth is a sin

And the punishment is death

I wish you had left me unborn

I shit my pants as I wait for the reaper

Lie in fetal position

Tears stream down my cheeks

As I call for my mother and say an act of contrition

We'll fight this war with germs and atoms

Destroy our only home

Our mutated descendants battle the next with sticks and stones

Are we not savages innately destined to maim and kill?

Blame it on the environment, heredity or evolution

We're still responsible

Our intelligence may progress at geometric rates

Yes socially we remain belligerent neonates
