Nightmare No. 1 (Collapse)

[Verse 1]
From a rumbling sound
I woke on shifting ground
I stare at the abyss
Hell, what did I miss?

Inside the house, no-one
But dinner's almost done
I guess we're finally there
The oil, the bomb, the scare

The bunker's pantry's filled
Turn to start that quilt

[Chorus]
It keeps eating through
Like ants through timberwork
The car, my records too
All our hard work
All our hard luck

[Verse 2]
And careful who you trust
'Cause our raised bed ain't for us
I hate to spoil the fun
It's for our neighbour with the gun

No, and they won't share
'Cause you don't outrun a bear
It's tough, but in the end
You outrun your slowest friend

Seems awful first, but then
Time for ourselves again

[Chorus]
It keeps eating through
Like ants through timberwork
The car, my records too
All our hard work
All our hard luck
