|
To the east of Java back in eighteen eighty three |
|
Stood a peaceful island basking in the sea |
|
No one knew the danger lying deep beneath the earth |
|
That Mother Nature's victim would sooth the monsters, burn |
|
Krakatoa |
|
The earth was torn asunder with a deadly roar |
|
When the dust had settled Krakatoa was no more |
|
With a scream of fury the power was released |
|
The biggest known explosion the world had ever seen |
|
The shockwaves traveled 'round the earth to smash the Richter scale |
|
The tidal wave that followed left death and desolation in it's trail |
|
Krakatoa |
|
The earth was torn asunder with a deadly roar |
|
When the dust had settled Krakatoa was no more |
|
Blasting chunks of magma into the stratosphere |
|
A thousand scarlet sunsets the land, a sea of fear |
|
To the east of Java basking in the sea |
|
The sign of Krakatoa is rising from the deep |
|
Krakatoa |
|
The earth was torn asunder with a deadly roar |
|
When the dust had settled Krakatoa was no more |
|
Krakatoa |
|
Krakatoa |
|
Krakatoa |
