Do those sirens always blow? Or did this time bomb finally explode? They want you all in cities now Herded on the coasts The center cannot hold And you’ll be armed with nothing but Your conscience when it goes If you make it out You can stay with me

‘Cuz this ain’t the life I’ll leave you, no no This ain’t the life I’ll leave you, no no This ain’t the life I’ll leave you, no no This ain’t the life I’ll leave Mmm, no no no

Did those shotguns start at dawn? I could’a slept through Stalingrad I let the neighbors hunt the land ‘Cuz I know they’re all men of God The cellar’s stocked for survival And I’d spend my last days arming for A war that I wont fight in There’s a lot that they Can take from me, yeah

But that ain’t the life I’ll leave you, no no That ain’t the life I’ll leave you, no no That ain’t the life I’ll leave you, no no That ain’t the life I’ll leave Mmm, no no no You’re hardly here when you’re home It’s like you’re living in retreat Like you see some threat I don’t But I’m not afraid for my own life No…

I’m afraid for the life I’ll leave you I’m afraid for the life I’ll leave you Mmm, yes yes

‘Cuz you’ll be in your bunker too someday Yeah, you’ll be in your bunker too someday Oh yeah, you’ll be in your bunker too someday Yeah yeah, you’ll be in your bunker too someday Someday! Someday!
