Acid & Ozone

"Bombs Away"

 

There was a day

We had a dream

And called it

Manifest destiny

Some people died

They were in the way

When the President said Bombs away

 

We faked a war

To kill someone

And all I could say

was what for?

the headlines said

three thousand dead

now they say bombs away

 

I'll appologize for my country's lies

now that all our enemies have been cut down to size

I saw them die

Through a camera's eye

Just another day of bombs away

Bombs away

 

Blood runs deep and flows like a river

Youth kills child for God they're sinners

We ?????

The war machine rises ???

 

that's all I could hear... anyone want to clear it up?

In the fourteen years since Acid & Ozone first showed up on my radar, I haven't seen or heard from them since.  I ran across this short mention on your board in my efforts of trying to find them and their song "Bombs Away", again, after getting only a weak copy of it in MP3 format, way back then. I'd like to contact them, if at all possible, so if you ever did get any info on them, would appreciate it very much if you would pass that along. I'd love to produce their song here at the studio, and need to contact them in order to honor their copyrights. They seem to have disappeared. A pity, since they sounded great. Great forum, by the way! Thanks...

IF anyone is interested, the Internet Archive Wayback Machine shed some light on the lyrics to Bombs Away, as well as the rest of their published songs back in 2003 . There was also a screenshot of a page, which I've attached.

To '...clear it up' -- as it was posted on their now defuct web page:

Bombs Away

There was a day
We had a dream
And called it
Manifest Destiny
Some people died
They were in the way
When the President said
"Bombs away"

We faked a war
To kill some more
And all I could say
Was "what for?"
The headlines said
Three thousand dead
And now they say
"Bombs away"

I'll apologize
For my country's lies
Now that all our enemies
Have been cut down to size
I saw them die
Through a camara's eye
Just another day
Of "bombs away"
Bombs away...

Blood runs deep
Flows like a river
Youth kills child
For godless sinners
An offering of peace
Scattered like ashes
A war machine rises
It growls and it gnashes
I cry
To the sky
The sun won't shine today
It's bombs away
It's bombs away
It's bombs away...

I'm still hoping for more info, so please, if you have a clue as to what happened to these guys, or how to contact them, pass that along. Thanks.
