(I Am A) Nuclear Reactor
(P. Gortych)
I am a nuclear reactor
there is a meltdown at my core
when I explode there will be danger
a thousand miles maybe more

There is a defect in the system
wires wrapped around my brain
a change from positive to negative
oh boy it’s driving me insane

CHORUS:
But baby I love you
won’t ever get over you
can’t stand the sorrow
maybe tomorrow
you’ll be gone from my soul
get out
before I explode

I feel the ions in my center
radiating all around
only you supply the tools dear
to keep them tightly bound

I feel that I am overflowing
smothered by the fumes
hurry hurry hurry hurry
last chance, you’re doomed

CHORUS (2X)

Do the meltdown
do the meltdown

Didi says, “It’s basically post-adolescent pissed-off rage. I’d say more, but the brain cells that wrote this have died.” We say, “Why didn’t she write more often?”
