nothing to fear (but fear itself)

hey

neighbor

let me give you some advice: the russians are about to pulverize us

in our sleep tonight

that is

if the crazy arabs

or the riots don't get us first

and the fire will rain down from the sky

the fire will rain down from the sky

people will die--people will die

people will die--people will die

but go ahead sleep tight in your beds

remember what the wise man said: there's nothing to fear

nothing to fear

there's nothing to fear

nothing to fear

there's nothing to fear

there's nothing to fear

and the temperature's starting to drop now

the temperature's starting to drop now

the temperature's starting to drop now. hey

little girl

won't you come this way

won't you let me buy you candy

or perhaps a chocolate shake

or perhaps some nice cocaine

or perhaps a little kiss

or perhaps a ride in my big car

won't you make an old man happy?

won't you make an old man happy?

won't you let me show you paradise?

there's nothing to fear

nothing to fear

there's nothing to fear

nothing to fear

there's nothing to fear

there's nothing to fear

and the temperature's starting to drop now

the temperature's starting to drop now

the temperature's starting to drop now. if they don't turn you into a junkie or a zombie on the street

if they don't turn you into a yo-cat or a grinning jesus freak

if they don't take away your brains or turn your body inside out

if they don't take away your passion with a color tv set

they'll take away your heart and soul

they'll take away your heart and soul

they'll take away your heart and soul

don't let them take away your heart and soul

but remember what the wise man said: there's nothing to fear

nothing to fear

there's nothing to fear

nothing to fear

there's nothing to fear

there's nothing to fear

and the temperature's starting to drop now

the temperature's starting to drop now

the temperature's starting to drop now.
