Sitting with the Thinker trying to work it out
It's a traffic jam of the brain
makes you wanna scream and shout
Presidential party no one wants to dance
Looking for a new star to put you in a trance
Lets go all the way
Lets go all the way
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Lets go all the way
Working in a factory eight days a week
Try to make dollar damn what a beat
Cartoon capers happen in reality
Rich man poor man living in fantasy
Lets go all the way

Time has come for all to know, evil rules on earth.
It's too late to stake your claim, it's all turned to surf
Primeval. Primeval. Burn...Burn...Burn.

Subtle lyrics talking about Pres Reagan and Trident nuclear weapons... œHis eyes were full of demons as he made his message clear
He strode the world like Caesar, and a Trident held his fear

Now you search the open evening sky
Trace the memories in your eyes
For the prophet's hard rain and the deluge
Lie in tears around your door
Once there were trees and livestock here
A mother's love, the warnings clear
But you chose to turn away from fear
Once in a lifetime
You die
Once in a moment
The sun goes down
Protect and survive

The chorus of this 1982 #1 hit in The Netherlands translates to:
Because when the Bomb hits,
I'll be sitting in my good suit,
diplomas and my checks in my pocket,
with my insurance policies and my dictionary,
under the high rises of the city next to you.
Just drop the thing already, it's going to happen anyway.
It doesn't matter if you run.

The whole song seems to be a reference to the effects of nuclear fallout/radiation on the environment and on living things

Something changed today
Everything is out of place
You said we had to go
Because you saw the red shadows
Close your eyes and it wont go away
You know the end is here today
Say goodbye turn your head
The time has come just like you said (Red Shadows)
I can feel the electric rain
The night won't come again
And your face, it has turned so gray
You wish it was yesterday, yesterday
Goodbye my love
I'll see you soon I don't know where
I don't have a clue
Don't look back, don't make the turn
They told me that these red shadows burn
Red shadows, red shadows
Tell me now it's true
Are these red skyies really blue
Tell me is it a lie
Because I don't see any sky at all
I can feel the electric rain
The night won't come again
Your face has turned so gray
We all wish it was yesterday!!!

An Italian early 80's hit. Set to a cheerful tropical music, the first part of the lyrics translates to something like this:
"What a strange dream
About a volcano and a city
People dancing on an island
A small jazz orchestra
Was playing Blue Gardenia
Water was slowly boiling to the east
The explosion and then,
A sweet, sweet atomic tan
Amidst the sweet, sweet music
Everything was falling apart
While the TV Kept telling
While the TV Kept singing <>."
I've always found the idea of the TV advertising soft drinks during a nuclear holocaust delightfully harrowing.

The enemy has cut down all of the power London south of the Thames is invaded
Westminster is razed down to the ground
The government has fled
The government has fled
The government has fled for Scotland today
It becomes black and white
Is it true what they say
They turn the day into night
Black and white becomes

Well, the big boys meet on the Vegas strip
With the S.D.I. as the gun in his hip
There's a gleam in his eye as he shakes your hand and he leaves you
Selling plans alt to walk away and deceive you.
She's a shell shocked baby in the cradle of time
We're just a walk soft army on a human land mine
I'd walk a million miles far beyond the stars of your future.
I'd walk a million miles far beyond the hope of your future.
So ivory tower man was it part of your plan
Turn this city to sand
With a one way ticket to the Promised Land.
Atomic playboys we are radiation Romeos

You built this body but can't take away my soul.
Atomic playboys we are radiation Romeos
