Lyrics:
Reactor Control to Mister Tom
Reactor Control to Mister Tom
Take your oxide fuel
and put your hazmat on
Reactor Control to Mister Tom
Connecting levers,
Redstone on
Check for fission
and may Steve's love be with you
This is Reactor Control
to Mister Tom
Just look at what you’ve made
Such a shame the automation’s not prepared
Now it's time to extract plutonium,
don’t be scared!
This is Mister Tom to Reactor Control
I'm breaking down the wall
And I'm boiling
in a most peculiar way
And my fate looks very different today
For here
Am I sitting in a steel can
Far below the world
Planet Earth is blue
And there’s something I must do
Though I'm past
My first week on the job,
I'm feeling very ill
And I don’t think it was safe to take the glow
Oh that curry I loved it very much
You know
Reactor Control to Mister Tom
The reactor’s dead,
is something wrong?
Can you hear me, Mister Tom?
Can you hear me, Mister Tom?
Can you hear me, Mister Tom?
Here am I standing
In a kitchen
Looking at the Moon
Planet Earth is blue
And it’s April Fools to you.
