Nuclear Boy (John Peel - 17/10/79) - Killing Joke

Take a look at yourself

And then look at us

Take a look at yourself

And then look at us

I don’t need your fruit

I’ve got my Vitamin pills

I said, I don’t need nature

With nuclear thrills

I don’t need a girl

Who’s gonna give birth

Just a blow-up dollie

For a blown-up earth

Nuclear Boy

I don’t need real music

Just a disco beat

I said, I don’t need the sun

With nuclear heat

I don’t need a name

When a number will do

I said, I don’t need a brain

Or a point of view

Nuclear Boy

Watch yourself turn nuclear —

Without even noticing!

Disposable people

Disposable lives!

Feed your bodies with filth

Feed your mind with lies

What when the supply runs out

What will we do?
