Missing link crouched upon a promontory rock

Tryin' to figure out his biological clock.

No one around to announce his arrival

So he's got to get to work on his sense of survival

Oh Oh, it's a dangerous world.



Over in China they got smart real fast

That's where they invented the man made blast.

They lost a few infers and some bamboo shacks,

But they gave birth to a tribe of pyromaniacs.



Oh oh, it's a dangerous world.

Fire in the sky, lava in the ocean,

Sittin' round waitin' for the next explosion



Back in the fifties they thought it made good sense

To teach all the school children about civil defense.

Don't be scared, do not cry,

Just dive under your desk and kiss your ass goodbye.



Oh oh, such a dangerous world.

It was a hell of a hustle, paranoia promotion

Waiting at ground zero, for the next explosion.



Where you gonna be

When it hits the fan

Got a plan

What you gonna do

If it lands on you

Where's your point of view.



Down at the beach club there's a sales convention

Night sky is the focus of that crowd's attention.

It's no cosmic collision just a fireworks show,

But they feel it in their hearts when those

Concussion bombs blow.



Oh oh, such a dangerous world

Gunpowder's louder than Newton's laws of motion.

Everybody's waitin' for the next explosion.



Firs in the sky, fallin' on the ocean

Sittin' round waitin' for the next explosion.
