lyrics

Do you like it turbocharged?
ICBM to the heart
Well whatchu gonna do...
If I were to send one straight to you?

Screaming like a shooting star
Gonna tear your world apart
Well whatchu gonna do...
When I set my vectors onto you?

Flashing metal burning through
Solid booster rocket fuel
I've got something hot for you
And there is nothing you can do (But)

Basking in the warmth of searing artificial rays
And softer than the pile of ash that everything has left within its wake
You're lighter than the air and now you cannot stay
But there is not much you can do
When a nuclear missile comes to you...
