Breathing [Never For Ever]

 

                Outside

                Gets inside ooh

                Through her skin.

                I've been out before

                But this time it's much safer in.

 

                Last night in the sky, ooh

                Such a bright light.

                My radar send me danger

                But my instincts tell me to keep

 

                                Breathing,

                                               (out in out in out in)

                                Breathing,

                                               (out in out)

                                Breathing my mother in,

                                Breathing my beloved in,

                                Breathing,

                                Breathing her nicotine,

                                Breathing,

                                Breathing the fall-out in,

                                Out in, out in, out in, out in.

 

                We've lost our chance.

                We're the first and the last, ooh

                After the blast.

                Chips of Plutonium

                Are twinkling in every lung.

 

                                (ahh)

                I love my

                                (ahh)

                Beloved, ooh

                All and everywhere,

                                (ahh)

                Only the fools blew it.

                                (ahh)

                You and me

                                (ahh)

                Knew life itself is

                                (ahh)

 

                                Breathing,

                                               (out in out in out in)

                                Breathing,

                                               (out in out)

                                Breathing my mother in,

                                Breathing my beloved in,

                                Breathing,

                                Breathing her nicotine,

                                Breathing,

                                Breathing the fall-out in,

                                Out in, out in, out in, out in,

                                Out in, out in, out in, out, out, out, out, out

 

                                               "In point of fact it is possible to tell the

                                               difference between a small nuclear explosion and

                                               a large one by a very simple method. The calling

                                               card of a nuclear bomb is the blinding flash that

                                               is far more dazzling than any light on earth, brighter

                                               even than the sun itself, and it is by the duration

                                               of this flash that we are able to determine the size

                                (What are we going to do without)

                                               of the weapon. After the flash a fireball can be

                                               seen to rise, sucking up under it the debris, dust

                                               and living things around the area of the explosion,

                                               and as this ascends, it soon becomes recognisable

                                               as the familiar "mushroom cloud". As a demonstration

                                               of the flash duration test let's try and count the

                                               number of seconds for the flash emitted by a very

                                               small bomb; then a more substantial, medium-sized

                                               bomb; and finally, one of our very powerful,

                                               "high-yield" bombs.

 

                (What are we going to do without?)

                                Ooh please,

                (What are we going to do without?)

                                Let me breathe!

                (What are we going to do without?)

                                Ooh quick, breathe in deep!

                (We are all going to die without)

                                Oh, leave me something to breathe!

                (What are we going to do without?)

                                Oh, leave me something to breathe!

                (We are all going to die without)

                                Oh god please leave us something to breathe!

                (What are we going to do without?)

                Oh, life is...
