Under the gun      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      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
