Lyrics

[Intro]

I'm waking up to ash and dust

I wipe my brow and I sweat my rust

I'm breathing in the chemicals

I'm breaking in, shaping up

Then checking out on the prison bus

This is it, the apocalypse

Whoa

[Chorus]

I'm waking up, I feel it in my bones

Enough to make my system blow

Welcome to the new age, to the new age

Welcome to the new age, to the new age

Whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh

Whoa-oh-oh-oh

I'm radioactive, radioactive

Whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh

Whoa-oh-oh-oh

I'm radioactive, radioactive

[Verse 1]

I raise my flag, dye my clothes

It's a revolution, I suppose

We're painted red to fit right in

Whoa-oh

I'm breaking in, shaping up

Then checking out on the prison bus

This is it, the apocalypse

Whoa-oh

[Chorus]

I'm waking up, I feel it in my bones

Enough to make my system blow

Welcome to the new age, to the new age

Welcome to the new age, to the new age

Whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh

Whoa-oh-oh-oh

I'm radioactive, radioactive

Whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh

Whoa-oh-oh-oh

I'm radioactive, radioactive

[Bridge]

All systems go, the sun hasn't died

Deep in my bones, straight from inside

[Chorus]

I'm waking up, I feel it in my bones

Enough to make my system blow

Welcome to the new age, to the new age

Welcome to the new age, to the new age

Whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh

Whoa-oh-oh-oh

I'm radioactive, radioactive

Whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh

Whoa-oh-oh-oh

I'm radioactive, radioactive
