[Intro]
Dm C
 
 
[Verse 1]
Dm
My name is Nuke Power, a terror am I

I can cause such destruction on land, sea, and sky

The Minister says that I'll do you no harm
   Dm
If he locks me up in this house down in Carne

Tooraloo, Tooralay
                                             Dm
I'll cripple and maim, and cause death and decay

Oh he'll have me well guarded, by night and by day

I'll cripple and maim, and cause death and decay
 
 
[Verse 3]
       Dm
Such a beautiful country I see all around
      C
Where people and flowers even fishes abound

I'll change that whole scene in 5 seconds, I warn

If I once escape from that house down in Carne

If I once escape from that house down in Carne
 
 
[Chorus]
               C
Tooraloo, Tooralay
                                             Dm
I'll cripple and maim, and cause death and decay
 
 
[Verse 5]
  Dm
I know of three sources called wind, rain, and sun
     C
Very powerful are they, but they're also great fun

Treat them with respect and they'll do you no harm
        Dm
They'll work for you free every day down in Carne
 
 
[Chorus]
               C
Tooraloo, Tooralay
                                                Dm
They won't cripple or maim, or cause death or decay
 
 
[Verse 6]
      Dm
So to all you fine people, I'll make this strong plea
C
Go tell your Minister to let me go free
       Dm
If you don't try to use me, I'll do you no harm
Dm
Don't let him lock me in his house down in Carne
 
 
[Outro]
               C
Tooraloo, Tooralay
                                             Dm
I'll cripple and maim, and cause death and decay
               C
Tooraloo, Tooralay
                                             Dm
I'll cripple and maim, and cause death and decay
