Albums: mad max beyond thunderdome soundtrack (85),
Grammy award: best rock vocal performance, female (86)
In the desert sun every step that you take could be the final one
In the burning heat hanging on the edge of destruction
You cant stop the pain of your children crying out in your head
They always said that the living would envy the dead
So now youre gonna shoot bullets of fire
Dont wanna fight but sometimes youve got to
Youre some soul survivor
Theres just one thing youve got to know
Youve got ten more thousand miles to go
Because youre one of the living
And if we cant stick together
One of the living
Whos gonna make it tonight
Walk tall, cool, collected and savage
Walk tall, bruised, sensual, ravaged
Its every man for himself, every woman, every child
A new breed, ferocious and wild
And all they want to do is shoot bullets of fire
They wanna fight and sometimes youve got to
Youre some soul survivor
Theres just one thing youve got to know
Youve got ten more thousand years to go
Because youre one of the living
And if we cant stick together
One of the living
Whos gonna make it tonight
