Def Leppard - When the Walls Came Tumbling Down lyrics

On the first day of the first
Month in some distant year
The whole sky froze golden
Some said it was the aftermath
Of the radium bomb
While others told of a final retribution
A terrible revenge of the gods
But we understood the grand finale
Fulfillment of a prophecy told
Many years before so all that was left was
All the women were captured and chained
And national suicide was proclaimed
And New America fell to the ground
And all the children lay crippled and lame
But all the nations came together
In fear of the thought of the end
No more would we fight in the streets
No courage had we to defend

When the walls came tumbling down
When the walls came tumbling down
Everybody ran as they screamed at the sound
When the walls came tumbling down
When the walls came tumbling down
When the walls came tumbling down
Everybody ran as they screamed at the sound

A blinding light the sun had died
A new moon took it's place
Tidal waves and open graves the
Fate of the unhuman race
The city's heart no longer beats no
Pity have I left to lend
A sinner sit's reciting Dylan it's now
That I welcome the end
