Breathing

Outside

Gets inside

Through her skin.

I've been out before

But this time it's much safer in.



Last night in the sky,

Such a bright light.

My radar send me danger

But my instincts tell me to keep



Breathing,

("out, in, out, in, out, in...")

Breathing,

Breathing my mother in,

Breathing my beloved in,

Breathing,

Breathing her nicotine,

Breathing,

Breathing the fall-out in,

Out in, out in, out in, out in.



We've lost our chance.

We're the first and the last, ooh,

After the blast.

Chips of plutonium

Are twinkling in every lung.



I love my

Beloved, ooh,

All and everywhere,

Only the fools blew it.

You and me

Knew life itself is



Breathing,

("out, in, out, in, out...")

Breathing,

Breathing my mother in,

Breathing my beloved in,

Breathing,

Breathing her nicotine,

Breathing,

Breathing the fall-out in,

Out in, out in, out in, out in,

Out in, out in, out in, out...

("out!")



"in point of fact it is possible to tell the

("out!")

Difference between a small nuclear explosion and

A large one by a very simple method. the calling

Card of a nuclear bomb is the blinding flash that

Is far more dazzling than any light on earth--brighter

Even than the sun itself--and it is by the duration

Of this flash that we are able to determine the size

("what are we going to do without?")

Of the weapon. after the flash a fireball can be

Seen to rise, sucking up under it the debris, dust

And living things around the area of the explosion,

And as this ascends, it soon becomes recognisable

As the familiar "mushroom cloud". as a demonstration

Of the flash duration test let's try and count the

Number of seconds for the flash emitted by a very

Small bomb; then a more substantial, medium-sized

Bomb; and finally, one of our very powerful,

"high-yield" bombs



"what are we going to do without?"

Ooh please!

"what are we going to do without?"

Let me breathe!

"what are we going to do without?"

Ooh, quick!

"we are all going to die without!"

Breathe in deep!

"what are we going to die without?"

Leave me something to breathe!

"we are all going to die without!"

Oh, leave me something to breathe!

"what are we going to do without?"

Oh, god, please leave us something to breathe!"

"we are all going to die without

Oh, life is--breathing.
