Lyrics Roger Waters – The Fallout

Text:

Man
«Blimey! I…I suppose…that was it.»
Woman
«Wasn’t it light?»

Man
«Yea, terrific. You—you get terrific light with those bombs.
Listen! A dog!»

Woman
«What does the fallout look like, dear?»

Man
«Fallout? The government director neglected to mention what it would look like.
I expect it would look a bit like snow does, only gray.
Very quiet. I expect they’re all are having a good lie-in after the bombing.»

Woman
«Terrible smell of burning.»
Man
«Well, yes. Well there’s bound to be. That’s logical…»
Woman
«It’s like…roast meat.»
Man
«Yes, it does. I expect everybody will be having their Sunday
dinner a bit early this week, due to the unexpected circumstances…»

Man
«A cloud coming up. Looks like rain. We’ll be alright for water now for a while, my dear.»
Woman
«Do you think rainwater is alright to drink?»
Man
«Well, yes, of course it is. There’s nothing purer than rainwater, is there? Everybody knows that.»

Woman
«Oh, look! My hair’s coming out.»
