Red Alert Lyrics

We were on the Russian border
When the news began to break
Of a nuclear reactor melting down
Sending deadly clouds of dustInto the atmosphere
Falling down like rain upon the groundWe were laying in the sun
Listening to the radio
When someone said you'd better get inside
We didn't know how seriousThe situation was
That many people to the north had diedRed alert, red alert
Screaming in my head
There's something I'm not sure of going downRed alert, red alert
Screaming in the night
That fallout seems to follow me aroundWe made out way to Hungary
Got ready for the show
Thinking we were safe there
From the stormBut the deadly cloud was high above
Taken by the wind
Spreading like a plague across the land

A threat you couldn't seeNothing you could feel
Something evil floating in the air
Look towards the east
For the danger yet to comeFor the Earth
We make a silent prayerRed alert, red alert
Screaming in my head
There's something I'm not sure of going downRed alert, red alert
Screaming in the night
That fallout seems to follow me aroundWe were on the Russian border
When the news began to break
Of a nuclear reactor melting down
Sending deadly clouds of dustInto the atmosphere
Falling down like rain upon the groundRed alert, red alert
Screaming in my head
There's something I'm not sure of going downRed alert, red alert
Screaming in the night
That fallout seems to follow me around
