40 Years

(álbum: No Winners - 1988)

Will there be
Will there be a world
Will there be a world in 40 years
Will there be
Will there be a world
Will there be a world in 40 years

Way back in 45
When the first atom bomb came alive
In no time they opened the door
More power than were ever seen before
Choose a city where thousands could die
Show the world what would happen if the atom bombs fly
Told the west you have no fear
This bomb will keep the peace for 40 years

Will there be
Will there be a world
Will there be a world in 40 years

But then h-bombs came along
Sounded like thunder the weatherman was wrong
White dust flew across the shore
They've never seen snow in the pacific before

Will there be
Will there be a world
Will there be a world in 40 years

(40 years...)

Will the song remain the same
Will you keep on play the game
So you can justify your carreers
Will there be a world in 40 years

Will there be
Will there be a world
Will there be a world in 40 years
Will there be
Will there be a world
Will there be a world in 40 years

(This tready is not the millenia
But it is an important first step
A step towards peace a step towards reason
A step away from war)

The last point I find so strange
A theory of the limited nuclear SG
Forget the battle you won before
There ain't no winners in a nuclear war

Will there be
Will there be a world
Will there be a world in 40 years

Way back in 45
When the first atom bomb came alive
(40 years)
(40 years)
White dust flew across the shore
They've never seen snow in the pacific before
(40 years)
(40 years)

(In these 40 years to many dreams have been shattered
To many promises have been broken
To may lives have been lost)
