[Intro]
Following total atomic annihilation, the rebuilding of this great nation of ours may fall to you
That's why we at Vault-Tec have prepared these educational materials for you to better understand the seven defining attributes that make you S.P.E.C.I.A.L

[Verse 1]
The future foretells a tale of when the world goes boom-boom
Nobody prepared, don't think anybody cared about the sole truth
Oh the bombs, they rose, now everybody knows the Doomsday device
Claustrophobic, autotrophic, catastrophic hell will be soon and be up in the sky
Even when the world feels lonely and cold inside
Even when your heart feels blistered from the scenes

[Chorus]
For they would fall, for they would rise
For they would tear apart the view from your very eyes
Take your hindsight and change the world (For a new beginning)
For it's now your chance to use your hands
Descend through the cracks in the dirt where you stand
Take on the vast open masquerade, this is atomic renegade

[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
Resources are scarce, prepare yourself for homicidal rampage
Claim your rightful place, mark the writing on your face, turn a new page
Well, the bombs they took your land, and now you're left all alone
There's masses of rebellious, preposterous, demonical carnage ready for your bones
Use your senses and you'll prove you're whole again
You're the hero of this land demised with pain
[Chorus]
For they would fall, for they would rise
For they would tear apart the view from your very eyes
Take your hindsight and change the world (For a new beginning)
For it's now your chance to use your hands
Descend through the cracks in the dirt where you stand
Take on the vast open masquerade, this is atomic renegade

[Bridge]
Now let's begin with simple instructions on what makes you S.P.E.C.I.A.L
(Strength) Build your abilities to carry more
(Perception) Will keep your aim right where you want it to be
(Endurance) Brawns will tackle foes, but how long for?
(Charisma) Socialise, enemies are closer than you think
(Intelligence) Outsmart your foes with gadgets capable of removing harm
(Agility) Build reflexes to defend from approaching scum
(Luck) Tactic and strength are one thing, but sometimes all it takes is good luck
Now take your world and turn it upside down
One man pushes through, one mutant at a time

[Pre-Chorus]
For you would rise through hell and back
You foretell of times when you were under attack
But your hindsight changed the world

[Chorus]
For they would fall, for they would rise
For they would tear apart the view from your very eyes
Take your hindsight and change the world (For a new beginning)
For it's now your chance to use your hands
Descend through the cracks in the dirt where you stand
Take on the vast open masquerade, this is atomic renegade
[Outro]
Take the world and begin the charge of the damned
Be sure to defend your brethren friend
You fight for the land, your army descends
You save a new race until the end
