Tytuł: Protect And Survive

They said protect and you'll survive ---
  (but our postman didn't call)
  8lbs. of over-pressure wave seemed to glue him to the wall
  They said protect and you'll survive
  
  E.M.P. took out the radio ---
  (and our milk-man didn't call)
  Flash blinded by the pretty lights,
  didn't see his bottles fall
  or feel the warm black rain arrive
  
  Big friendly cloud builds in the West
  (and our dust-men haven't called)
  They left the dual carriageway at a hundred miles an hour ---
  a tail wind chasing them away
  
  And in deep shelters lurk below, sub-regional control
  who sympathise but cannot help
  to mend your body or your soul
  Self-appointed guadians of the race with egg upon their face
  When steady sirens sing all-clear they pop up,
  find nobody here
  
  And so I watch two new suns spin ---
  (our paper man doesn't call)
  Burnt shadow printed on the road --- now there's nothing there at all
  They said protect and you'll survive
