Strange Death In Paradise Lyrics
Spiraling. Falling. A silver machine
from wings of freedom silent above.
Eyelids were burning. Summer sun roasting.
Tumbling chrome in the clear blue sky
Brighter than sunshine for all of our life times.
One thousand stars turned day into night at the end.
Where were you when it fell from the sky?
I saw the movie, I read the reply.
In the beginning there was only the word.
People were kissing in front of their shadows.
Children were playing out in the yard.
I am not guilty. I made no difference.
I wasn't born and I wasn't made on that day.
Where were you when it fell from the sky?
I saw the movie, I read the reply.
In the beginning there was only the word.
Strange death in paradise. (x6)
from wings of freedom silent above.
Eyelids were burning. Summer sun roasting.
Tumbling chrome in the clear blue sky
Brighter than sunshine for all of our life times.
One thousand stars turned day into night at the end.
I saw the movie, I read the reply.
In the beginning there was only the word.
Children were playing out in the yard.
I am not guilty. I made no difference.
I wasn't born and I wasn't made on that day.
I saw the movie, I read the reply.
In the beginning there was only the word.

I always had the feeling it was about a nuclear holocaust. It's very vague and I'd love to discover what it's really about. Knowing Bruce, it's probably something quite esoteric.
I get the feeling that this is about an asteroid or satellite crashing to earth, there’s a suggestion on disaster movies and now it a reality. Maybe the title relates to being on a vacation/holiday when disaster strikes, what do others think?
