8.6

On that day was the sky blue
Many men didn't know it coming
A few men knew that the day don't clear
Many have melted away
The city destroyed by a little mass of iron
On that day the earth burnt to the ground
The scorching sun Fighter planes high up into the sky
Screams were mixed in a smoke mushroom
Nevertheless,
the people lived through
the city crept up
the city lived through
On that day was the sky blue
Many men didn't know it coming
A few men knew that the day don't clear
Many have melted away
The number 8.6 is stamped in the city
I want no more numbers fixed again
A mountain of black stiffs It was a night marish truth
I don't want it happen again
Nevertheless,
the people lived through
the city crept up
the city lived through
Nevertheless,
the people lived through
the city crept up
the city lived through
I'm proud I was born there
I'm proud I was brought up there
I like the peace and quiet of the town
Like the peace and quiet of the town
On that day was the sky blue
Many men didn't know it coming
A few men knew that the day don't clear
Many have melted away
Many have melted away
