Euroshima Lyrics

John Waite Euroshima

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!
