Euroshima Lyrics - Waite John

Storm warning on the radio, flag and banners 

Armageddon on the late night show, and like my father before 

We've got love on the barricades 

Sweet optimists, battle hymns and hitparades 

Armageddon cascades, what's my name? Jack of Spades 

Outside my window is darkness and rain 

And I'm only dreamin', 'til the sun shines again 

Got nothing but a uniform, jungle issue, and rules that I will warm 

[All my needs like a storm]/[On my knees, head cast down] 

Serial number stands across my name 

My fate is decided by kangaroo cops, it's insane 

Tin soldiers marching in flames, what's my name? Jack of Spades 

Outside my window is darkness and rain 

And I'm only dreamin', until the sun shines again 

But there's no phoenix rising, and the future's stillborn 

And the shadows are dancing, my coat of colours is torn, in Euro 

(Solo) 

Supernova on the Baltic Sea, push-button logic, [the human eyes in me] 

And it gets a lot like TV 

We've got children starving in the streets 

Genocide for passion, and no man withstands this heat 

Kids in [Parm] don't compete, the boss gets the [iron in the cold] 

Outside my window, clouds fill my sky 

And I'm only dreamin', but there's no time to turn the tide 

There's no phoenix rising, and the future's stillborn 

Dark shadows are dancing, my coat of colours is torn, in Euroshima 

Oh no, Euro, Euroshima, oh no, Euro, ow!
