| Lyrics: | Won't hear a sound at Porton Down,
the clear liquids keep their silence,
buried
underground at Porton Down
the fast form of the final violence.
Quite right to be
worried about the proliferation
of nuclear bombs and power stations,
but there's a
deterrent that's going to
unearth us yet...
Hurry on round about Porton Down,
a
quick glimpse of the future warfare
hidden under ground at Porton Down;
far too
frightening to utter what you saw there.
They got bacteria to drop us where we
stand,
they got diseases still unknown to man,
they got the virus and a microgram's enough
to do in a continent.
The ultimate madness,
just one shattered test-tube to
wipe out the world.
It begins with the mustard gas,
it proceeds to
Hiroshima.
The culture moves on -
now it's bacterial, truly insane.
Porton Down
waits to fever the brain.
Won't hear a sound at Porton Down,
the clear liquids keep
their silence
buried underground at Porton Down,
the fast form of the final
violence.
Hurry on round about Porton Down
a quick glimpse of the future
warfare,
hidden underground at Porton Down,
far too frightening to say what you saw
there.
No sound at Porton Down,
from Porton Down,
after Porton Down |
