Shut 'Em Down |
| Did you hear that rumble? |
| Did you hear that sound? |
| Well it wasn’t no eartquake, but it shook the ground. |
| It made me think about power, like it or not: |
| I got to work for earth for what it’s worth, |
| 'Cause it’s the only earth we’ve got. |
| Shut 'um Down! |
| If that’s the only way to keep them from melting down! |
| Shut 'um Down! |
| If that’s the only way to keep them from melting down! |
| I’ve heard a lot about safety and human error. |
| A few dials and gauges is just a wing and a prayer. |
| If you need perfection, and that’s what it takes, |
| Then you don’t need people, can’t use people, |
| You know people make mistakes… |
| Shut 'um Down! |
| If that’s the only way to keep them from melting down! |
| Shut 'um Down! |
| If that’s the only way to keep them from melting down! |
