Lyrics

Explosions

We like explosions that leave you feeling good

We like ideas that change the world for good

There's nothing past the stop 'n' go

There's nothing but the ebb and flow

There's nothing like some in and out

There's nothing more than what you know

Yes - Oh, yeah!

Yes - Oh, yeah!

We like new places that jets can't take you to

We do like music when it does what it should do

There's nothing past the stop 'n' go

There's nothing but the ebb and flow

There's nothing like some in and out

There's nothing more than what you know

Yes - Oh, yeah!

Yes - Oh, yeah!

Yes - (We like) Oh, yeah! (Explosions)

Yes - (We like) Oh, yeah! (Explosions)

We like explosions - it's only right we should

We like ideas we thought you understood

We like new places until they're overrun

We do like music - loud shots from the big spudgun

Yes - Oh, yeah!

Yes - Oh, yeah!

Yes - (We like) Oh, yeah! (Explosions)

Yes - (We like) Oh, yeah! (Explosions)

Yes - (We like) Oh, yeah! (Explosions)

Yes - (We like) Oh, yeah! (Explosions)
