Lyrics

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
It's falling down like rain upon 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 out way to Hungary
Got ready for the show
Thinking we were safe there from the storm
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
Something evil floating in the air
Look towards the East for the danger yet to come
For the Earth we take a silent prayer
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 were on the Russian border
When the news began to break
Of a nuclear reactor melting down
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
