CLIFF RICHARD - Under The Gun lyrics

Looking at baby's face I saw the plight of the human race

Dying to survive

Shaken by the irony the anger rose inside of me

And would not, would not subside

I thought you're too young to understand that the fate of every mortal man

Rests in someone's mortal hand tonight

In the nuclear insanity there's a death watch on the land and sea

And I believe that we may never live our lives

We were born under the gun and just like every mother's son

We are hostage to the megaton and the world could die tonight

Under the gun, we live in fear that the end will come

But there's one place to run

Run to the Son

Everyone can see that the hour is late

And every soul on Earth got to demonstrate

Their loving if we're to survive

'Cos we're tired of living on the brink

Scared to death that our ship will sink

At the winking of an eye

This course we're on's a big mistake

'Cos we all lose in the nuclear race

It's time to show all the heads of state that we believe

Yes we believe that we're fighting for our lives

We were born under the gun and just like every mother's son

We are hostage to the megaton and the world could die tonight

Under the gun, we live in fear that the end will come

But there's one place to run

Run to the Son

We were born under the gun and just like every mother's son

We are hostage to the megaton and the world could die tonight

Under the gun, we live in fear that the end will come

But there's one place to run

Run to the Son

There's a finger on the button but if it's pressed we're not forgotten

Millions speak, feel no fear

The mood to change is in ascendance here

There's a finger on the button but if it's pressed we're not forgotten

Millions speak, feel no fear

The mood to change is in ascendance here

There's a finger on the button but if it's pressed we're not forgotten

There's a finger on the button but if it's pressed we're not forgotten
