Atom Bomb Lyrics by The Strike

Atom Bomb

2014

We're counting down, we're getting ready for lift off
The ground is shaking and you're bringing the pain
You got your target on the heart of the dance floor
I'm taking cover, gettin' out of this place

You're bearing down, you're like a locomotive
You're bearing down, you're like a cannonball
And though my head is telling me I should run now
My heart has got me planted where I stand

'Cause when it came down to you
I never could fight the feeling to want you

Ooh! You're an atom bomb!
Falling to earth to destroy us all
Set off the night, set it on fire
I came out to catch you
And baby, you just refuse
To understand that we are bound we use
The light of the sun, sound the alarm
Baby react

She hit the floor, we had to brace for the fall out
We had stop, we had to rock and roll
And then a voice in the commotion, it called out
Run for your life before we're 'bout to lose all control

I think this girl's about to radiate
'Bout to explode about to deviate
Clear out the room it's time to evacuate
This girl is looking to annihilate

But when it came down to you
I never could fight the feeling to want you

Ooh! You're an atom bomb!
Falling to earth to destroy us all
Set off the night, set it on fire
I came out to find you
And baby, you just refuse
To understand that we are bound we use
The light of the sun, sound the alarm

Come on, react to me
I know you feel it burnin'
I know how you love a thrill
Come out and dance

Oh! You're an atom bomb!
Falling to earth to destroy us all
Set off the night, set it on fire
I see you, come out and dance
Baby you just refuse
To understand that we are bound we use
The light of the sun, sound the alarm
The light of the sun, sound the alarm
The light of the sun, sound the alarm
Come on, baby react!
