| • | What it's about: A fetal spiritual being, very much aware of what's going on outside the womb, makes a desperate plea to save mankind from nuclear destruction. Kate says it was inspired by side 3 of Pink Floyd's The Wall. | |
| • | 3:00 into the song, there's a narration explaining how nuclear bomb sizes are determined by their flash duration. Here is the text. | |
| • | Running time: 5:30 | |
| • | The Empty Bullring Lyrics | |
| • | What it's about: A woman laments her husbands futile obsessions -- he's an injured matador who will not accept the fact that he can no longer fight. | |
