Manhattan Project

歌詞

Imagine a time when it all began In the dying days of a war A weapon that would settle the score Whoever found it first Would be sure to do their worst They always had before... Imagine a man where it all began A scientist pacing the floor In each nation always eager to explore To build the best big stick To turn the winning trick But this was something more... The big bang took and shook the world Shot down the rising sun The end was begun it would hit everyone When the chain reaction was done The big shots try to hold it back Fools try to wish it away The hopeful depend on a world without end Whatever the hopeless may say Imagine a place where it all began Gathered from across the land To work in the secrecy of the desert sand All of the brightest boys To play with the biggest toys More than they bargained for... The big bang took and shook the world Shot down the rising sun The hopeful depend on a world without end Whatever the hopeless may say Imagine a man when it all began The pilot of "Enola Gay" Flying out of the shockwave on that August day All the powers that be, and the course of history Would be changed for evermore... The big bang took and shook the world Shot down the rising sun The end was begun it would hit everyone When the chain reaction was done The big shots try to hold it back Fools try to wish it away The hopeful depend on a world without end Whatever the hopeless may say The big bang took and shook the world Shot down the rising sun The hopeful depend on a world without end Whatever the hopeless may say
