Red Skies Over Paradise

from Re​-​Recorded Hits 2011 by Fischer-Z

lyrics

My hand reached down for the radio
I held it up to my ear
The beads of sweat gathered
On my head and trickled down

Out in the park children were playing
Though it was dark, the sky glowed red
People were stunned, everyone's waiting
Nobody knew why, but they know it now

The newsman said most of London's gone
We saw the cloud rise from here
An ice cream van with it's music
On goes round and round

Out in the park children were playing
Though it was dark the sky glowed red
People were stunned, everyone's waiting
Nobody knew why, but they know it now

Down in their bunkers under the sea
Men pressing buttons don't care about me

There's lots of sand on the cellar floor
We went down there for the night
The barricades that my brother made
Keeps out the light

Out in the park children were playing
Though it was dark the sky glowed red
People were stunned, everyone's waiting
Nobody knew why, but they know it now

Down in their bunkers under the sea
Men pressing buttons don't care about me
