lyrics

We were zero to five
The year the bullies arrived
You know they came to neutralize every shadow alive
I was there with the gang the time the telephone rang
To say a sleeper bit the leader with his medicine fangs
We were zero to ten when they beat us again
Ran us out of the town
The shadows were down
Now we hide from the glow
Trashed our radio
When we heard the bullies on the air singing
"Pure Terror, on the TV
Pure Terror tonight
When you get the big bright fright in your sight
Pure Terror tonight"
We got letters from home, our friends were turned into stone
(Bullies) filled their bodies with light til the meters were blown
Then the kid came around to where the dances went down
He knew our favorite songs
He was singing along
So we put on our spikes, started planning our strike
Because we never met a shadow that we didn't like
We'll be zero to none before the fighting is done
And you hear the bullies on the air singing
"Pure Terror, on the TV
Pure Terror tonight
When you get the big bright fright in your sight
Pure Terror Tonight"
Pure Terror works on you slowly til you feel like you're burning alive
No more radio
Pure Terror makes you feel like you're burning alive
