Bitten by the acid-house bug in 1988, Fugler, Tournier and Bryant began recording with two singles informed by more-than-competent guitar work, soaring techno-funk and plenty of pop inspiration as well. "Thumper" and "Joni" (the latter sampling Joni Mitchell's "Big Yellow Taxi") brought Fluke much attention in the growing electronic sphere, and they signed a one-off album deal with indie-rock kingpins Creation for their debut full-length, 1991's Techno Rose of Blighty. After completing another record deal with Virgin that same year, Fluke released a live album Out (in essence) and their sophomore masterpiece Six Wheels on My Wagon, an album of poppy, occasionally dreamy ambient-trance which included several previously released singles. By 1995, Fluke had even hit the British charts (with the singles "Bullet" and "Tosh") and their third LP OTO marked a bit of a departure for the trio, a downbeat, jazzy path just beginning to be name-checked as trip-hop. Hitting the charts in an even bigger way during their 1997 return, the trio released "Atom Bomb," a high-energy number recorded for the Virgin video-game soundtrack Wipeout 2097. The single and video also introduced fourth member Arial Tetsuo, an animé race-car driver come to life as concert figure-head Rachel Stewart. Risotto, Fluke's fourth LP, fit in nicely with the growing fanaticism surrounding big-beat techno, though the trio held on to their trance and trip-hop inclinations as well.

Atombomb
Fluke Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A mother fuckin' atom bomb
Twenty two mega tonne
I ain't ever seen so much fun
Baby got a poison gas
Baby got a heart attack
Baby got a pain on tap
Baby gimme some of that
Baby got second sight
Baby got a master plan
A foolproof master plan
Baby got purple hair
Baby got a secret lair
Baby got an army there
I ain't ever seen baby scared
Baby got a Nobel prize
Given for the perfect crime
Baby got an alibi
Baby got eight more lives
Baby got a crystal ball
Baby doesn't care at all
Baby's having too much fun
She's got a shit kickin' mother fuckin' atom bomb
Baby got a fleet at sea
And a submarine called emergency
She got a motorcade
She got a monorail
Going coat to coast on a campaign trail
Playing deck of cards in an armored car
She got a kung fu star as a body guard
She got a juju charm
She got a magic spell
She got a genie
All three is working well
She got a TV show
She got a shopping mall
She got a miracle
She doesn't want at all
She got a monument and at a great expense
She got a head of state and a president
She got destiny
She got supremacy
She got everything from a-z
She got it all down tight
She got nothing wrong
She got the whole wide world singing baby's song
The lyrics of Fluke's song Atombomb depict a woman, referred to as 'Baby', who possesses great power and control. The comparison of her to an atom bomb, with 22 mega tonne power, sets the tone for the entire song. The song seems to be satirical in nature as it lists seemingly outrageous qualities possessed by 'Baby'. She has access to weapons like poison gas, a fleet at sea, and a submarine named "Emergency." Along with these weapons, Baby has a 'master plan' that is said to be foolproof. She is portrayed as someone who is capable of doing whatever she wants as she has multiple lives, an alibi, and a Nobel prize, potentially for doing the perfect crime.
Furthermore, Baby is shown to have magic, charmed and supernatural elements in her arsenal with a genie, magic spells, a crystal ball, a juju charm, and second sight. With all these unique traits and possessions, Baby seems to be in complete control and is having a lot of fun causing chaos. The lyrics mention that she is often seen smiling, having a good time while the rest of the world joins in her campaign or sings her song.
In conclusion, the song's lyrics seem to be a satirical commentary on society's obsession with power and control that is often associated with figures of authority. It highlights how humanity can be blinded by power and how often, those with seemingly limitless power and resources fall prey to their whims and fancies.
