 Unused lyrics from lyric sheet:

...and there in the dawn of the nuclear twilight

In the heart of the glowing city

She stood

Pen in hand



Lalalalalalala

Lalalalalala

Lalalalalalala

Lalalalalala

Go and find rose and ask her 'bout order

Go and find rose and ask her 'bout yale

There is no more yale (yaaaaaa!)

There is no more order (yaaaaaay!)



I was out on the river

And in the darkness before me

In the light of the domed city

I saw rose lightning rose

She wasn't perfect

But she was semi-perfect

And she remembered all about her days in yale

Before they turned it into a sheet

Of radio-active glass

Thirty miles across



And I always used to want to think if we could sing

Loudly enough

If we could sing strong enough

And if we could sing

Hopefully enough

Then all of this madness would disappear

And if we could sing

Long enough

If we could sing strong enough

And if we could sing true enough

It might carry us through next year



Lalalalalalala

Lalalalalala

Lalalalalalala

Lalalalalala



Go and find rose and ask about nuclear

Go and find rose and ask her "what now? "

She'll tell you 'bout future

She'll tell you 'bout how to live beyond the pale



When the time comes...seize it

When the dream starts....believe in it

When the light shines...ohbathe in it



And now we'll have to be

Strong enough

Have to work long enough

And if we believe

True enough

Then much of this madness'll disappear



I'll be the one

She said

I'll be the only one

In the aftermath of atomic fire

I'll carry us through next year



Lalalalalalala

Lalalalalala

Lalalalala



Unused lyrics from lyric sheet:

What if the world was turned around

What if nuclear plants worked

What if nuclear bombs didn't

What if they held nuclear disarmament

Talks in antarctica instead of switzerland

(in igloosnot fancy hotels!) they'd be

Over and done

In six hoursand be on their way home

Imaginethe light

And imagined that rose was here tonight

And there in her eyes

Was a reason to live

A reason to fight

A reason to die

It scared me....it elevated me

I would do things for her

That I wouldn't do for my mother

My country

My lover

Tis of thee

I sing

Sweet girl of liberty

Sweet bird of freedom
