The lights went out
The last fuse blew
The clocks all stopped
It can’t be true
The program’s wrong
What can we do?
The printout’s blocked
It relied on you

The turbine cracked up
The buildings froze up
The system choked up
What can we do?

Please remember to mention me
In tapes you leave behind

We stood still, We all stood still
Still stood still, We’re standing still

The screen shut down
There’s no reply
The lifts all fall
A siren cries
And the radar fades
A pilot sighs
As the countdowns stall
The readout lies

The turbines cracked up
The buildings froze up
The system choked up
What can we do?

Please remember to mention me
In tapes you leave behind

We stood still, We all stood still
Still stood still, We’re standing still

The black box failed
The codes got crossed
And the jails decayed
The keys got lost
Everyone kissed
We breathe exhaust
In the new arcade
Of the holocaust

The turbine cracked up
The buildings froze up
The system choked up
What can we do?

Please remember to mention me
In tapes you might leave behind

We stood still. We all stood still
Still stood still, We’re standing still
We stood still, We all stood still
Still stood still, We’re standing still
