Sidewinder
Bankrupt Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What's coming your way is just what it seems
She's going to blow you to smithereens

No radar can find her location
Cos her name is Annihilation
And she's gonna find you wherever you are

Your lifeline's short, much shorter than mine
Her deadly precision will leave you no time

Sidewinder, merciless heatseeker
Your body's glowing red to lead her
And she's gonna find you wherever you are

Problem solved, business done
From the Falkland shores to Vietnam

Sidewinder, merciless heatseeker




Your body's glowing red to lead her
And she's gonna find you wherever you are
