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 can't be beat

(Verse 2)

We’re waiting for the countdown

Hauling through the (down to the knee?)

I see a tear from the eye of KGB

???????? for tyranny

(Chorus)

Bombs in the tundra

I'm wondering why they can't be beat

(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 can't be beat

(Instrumental)

Bombs in the tundra

I'm wondering why they can't be beat

Bombs in the tundra

In the tundra

Bombs, in the tundra
