Radioactive (Live) Lyrics

[Intro]
Ooo-oo
Ooo-oo
Ooo-oo

[Verse 1]
I'm waking up to ash and dust
I wipe my brow but I sweat my rust
I'm breathing in the chemicals

[Refrain]
I'm breaking in, shaping up then
Checking out on the prison bus
This is it, the apocalypse – whoa

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm waking up, I feel it in my bones
Enough to make my systems blow
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Welcome to the new age, to the new age

[Chorus]
Whoa, whoa – I'm radioactive, radioactive
Whoa, whoa – I'm radioactive, radioactive

[Verse 2]
I raise my flags, I dye my clothes
Now it's a revolution, I suppose
We're painted red to fit right in, whoa
[Refrain]
I'm breaking in, I'm shaping up then I'm
Checking out on the prison bus
This is it, the apocalypse – whoa

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm waking up, I feel it in my bones
Enough to make my systems blow
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Welcome to the new age, to the new age

[Chorus]
Whoa, whoa – I'm radioactive, radioactive
Whoa, whoa – I'm radioactive, radioactive

[Bridge]
All systems go, the sun hasn't died
But deep in my bones, straight from inside

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm waking up, I feel it in my bones
Enough to make my systems blow
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Welcome to the new age, to the new age

[Chorus]
Whoa, whoa – I'm radioactive, radioactive
Whoa, whoa – I'm radioactive, radioactive
[Outro]
Radioactive, radioactive

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
