Great Dirty World

60 Second Nightmare
Written by Lawrence Gowan
Lead Vocals by Lawrence Gowan

Can this be really happening
You're witness to a deadly thing
Confirming every deepest fear
That you've been hiding all these years
It's a fatal mistake
And your hands start to shake
Not a thing can be done
Once the worst has begun

60 second nightmare
Everyone will see their
60 second nightmare
Burned into their eyes
Seeing is believing - camera never lies
And you reel to the snap
From the jaws of the trap

You couldn't have expected this
It didn't look so poisonous
With shock and terror on your face
Doomed to watch it all take place
With your hands at your side
Just along for the ride
Save your loathing regret
'Cause you'll never forget

Out of the night
It'll come without warning
Or out of the blue
On a bright sunny morning
Bur darker than dark
It will thank you
And scar you for life
