《Manhattan Project (Live In Phoenix， Arizona/1988)》歌词

[00:05:18] Words by neil peart, music by geddy lee and alex lifeson

[00:05:18] Imagine a time

[00:05:18] When it all began in the dying days of a war

[00:05:18] A weapon -- that would settle the score

[00:05:18] Whoever found it first

[00:05:18] Would be sure to do their worst --

[00:05:18] They always had before...

[00:05:18] Imagine a man

[00:05:18] Where it all began a scientist pacing the floor

[00:05:18] In each nation -- always eager to explore

[00:05:18] To build the best big stick

[00:05:18] To turn the winning trick --

[00:05:18] But this was something more...

[00:05:18] The big bang -- took and shook the world

[00:05:18] Shot down the rising sun

[00:05:18] The end was begun -- it would hit everyone

[00:05:18] When the chain reaction was done

[00:05:18] The big shots -- try to hold it back

[00:05:18] Fools try to wish it away

[00:05:18] The hopeful depend on a world without end

[00:05:18] Whatever the hopeless may say

[00:05:18] Imagine a place

[00:05:18] Where it all began

[00:05:18] They gathered from across the land

[00:05:18] To work in the secrecy of the desert sand

[00:05:18] All of the brightest boys

[00:05:18] To play with the biggest toys --

[00:05:18] More than they bargained for...

[00:05:18] Imagine a man

[00:05:18] When it all began

[00:05:18] The pilot of enola gay

[00:05:18] Flying out of the shockwave

[00:05:18] On that august day

[00:05:18] All the powers that be

[00:05:18] And the course of history

[00:05:18] Would be changed for evermore...
