I'm wakin' up to ash and dust
I wipe my brow, and I sweat my rust
I'm breathin' in the chemicals
I'm breakin' in, shapin' up
Then checkin' out on the prison bus
This is it, the apocalypse, whoa
I'm wakin' up, I feel it in my bones
Enough to make my system blow
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Whoa, oh, whoa, I'm
Radioactive, radioactive
Whoa, oh, whoa, I'm
Radioactive, radioactive
I raise my flag, dye my clothes
It's a revolution, I suppose
We're painted red to fit right in, whoa
I'm breakin' in and shapin' up
Then checkin' out on the prison bus
This is it, the apocalypse, whoa
I'm wakin' up, I feel it in my bones
Enough to make my system blow
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Whoa, oh, whoa, I'm
Radioactive, radioactive
Whoa, oh, whoa, I'm
Radioactive, radioactive
All systems go
The sun hasn't died
Deep in my bones
Straight from inside
I'm wakin' up, I feel it in my bones
Enough to make my system blow
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Whoa, oh, whoa, I'm
Radioactive, radioactive
Whoa, oh, whoa, I'm
Radioactive, radioactive
