The Atom Age Lyrics & Chords By Bill Nelson's Red Noise

I can't sleep I can only dream
I talk so fast I don't know what I mean
I'm so imperfect in this perfect world
My beauty limps, it's like a synthetic pearl

I stand proud as the flags displayed
Citizen of the atom age

I can't march I can only dance
I'm just a victim of circumstance
I try to change but oh, what's the use
I am the lie that tells the truth

I stand proud as the flags displayed
Citizen of the atom age

I'm all hooked up to every modern appliance
But I hang with the angels from the gallows of science
It's a neon future and it tears me apart
'Cos it's the state of the nation
The state of the art

I stand proud as the flags displayed
Citizen of the atom age
