YOU'RE THE BOMB

THEY MADE YOU UP IN SECRET
YOU'RE THE BOMB
YOU'RE MY MANHATTAN PROJECT
WITHOUT WARNING, WITHOUT A SOUND
YOU HIT THE GROUND

YOU'RE THE BOMB
A FLASH OF BLINDING LIGHT
AND THEN YOU'RE GONE
INTO THAT GOOD NIGHT
WE'LL LET HISTORY DECIDE
IF WE'RE RIGHT OR WRONG

YOU AND I SET THE TOWN ON FIRE
BRIGHTER AND HOTTER THAN THE RISING SUN
FLYING HIGH
THE CITY LIGHTS WERE SHINING RIGHT BELOW
I LET YOU GO
WHAT HAVE I DONE?

YOU'RE THE BOMB
YOU CAME DOWN FROM ABOVE
AND BROKE THE CALM
MY TERRIFYING LOVE
BUT YOU SEEMED WORTH FIGHTING FOR AT THE TIME
YOU WERE MY WORLD, WAR, CRIME
