Lyrics[edit | edit source]

Presumed Lyrics

(Verse 1)

We're running on foreign soil

Design is made to order

The jealousy drives them wild

Forcing them over our borders

(Chorus)

Bombs in the tundra

(I'm wondering why they play the weak?)

(Verse 2)

Waiting for the countdown

Pulses through them (down to their knee?)

I see a tear from the eye of KGB

(And to think that it was a contender?) for tyranny

(Chorus)

Bombs in the tundra

(I'm wondering why they play the weak?)

(Verse 1)

We're running on foreign soil

Design is made to order

The jealousy drives them wild

Forcing them over our border

(Chorus)

Bombs in the tundra

(I'm wondering why they play the weak?)

(Instrumental)

Bombs in the tundra

(I'm wondering why they play the weak?)

Bombs in the tundra

In the tundra

Bombs, in the tundra
