Atom Songtext

von British sea power

I'll be the first to admit
This is a bright but haunted age
I just don't know now, now
I just can't say, hey, hey

When you get down
Down to the heart and the bones of it
That? s when it breaks, you know
That? s when it falls apart
But that? s the prize now

Oh, caveat emptor, open the atom? s core
But that? s the prize now
Oh, caveat emptor, open the atom? s core
Oh, caveat emptor, open the atom? s core, oh

Oh, oh, I just don? t get it

And you keep slipping
Down the surface of things
I just can? t take it now
I just can? t wait for more

When you get down
Down to the sub atomic part of it
That? s when it breaks, you know
That? s when it falls apart
Oh, caveat emptor, open the atom? s core, oh, oh

Oh, oh, I just don't get it, get it
Oh, I just don? t get it, get it
Get it, get it, get it, get it, get it
I just don't get it, oh

No, I, I just don't get it
No, I, I just don't get it
Just don? t get it, get it

Get it, get it, get it, get it
Get it, get it, get it, get it
Get it, get it, oh, get it

What? s wrong with you?
Hey, lad
Hey, lad
