[Intro]
Big KK Vacay! (yeah)
Big KK Vacay! (what)
Big KK Vacay! (uh-huh)
Big KK Vacay! (listen)
Start it up - shut it down.
Start it up - shut it down.

[Verse 1]
Big KK Vacay - committee calm
Protocol chirps, relay ticks, sub stays armed
They sold the comeback like a photo op
Then the board talks back - red lights pop

You don’t “kick it over,” you don’t “try again”
You don’t talk a reactor into being your friend
Interlocks don’t care what the camera needs
When the system says STOP, it keeps receipts

[Hook]
Vacay! (uh) - Start it up!
Vacay! (uh) - Shut it down!
Vacay! (uh) - Start it up!
Vacay! (uh) - Shut it down!

[Pre-Chorus]
This ain’t a resort, this ain’t a show
Steel has rules and it runs the flow
One alarm can erase your whole parade
That’s not “debate,” that’s physics’ blade

[Verse 2]
Control-rod pull, alarm hits first
Room goes rigid, don’t make it worse
A day later and it’s off again
“Investigating” is the loop they’re in

Xenon stacks, neutron sponge, restart window moves
You don’t muscle past it, you wait and prove
Hours to peak, then a slow unwind
You don’t win that fight by yelling at time

They’ll say “minor,” they’ll say “routine”
But that’s a restart that couldn’t stay clean
If it was so simple, why halt next day?
Why no date when they “clear the way”?

[Pre-Chorus 2]
TRY AGAIN 
NOT TODAY - that’s the gate
GREEN LIGHT
RED LIGHT - same old fate
No swagger makes a lockout bend
No slogan makes the trip unend

[Chorus]
RESTART! (what?)
ALARM! (what?)
HALT! (what?)
run it back

RESTART! (what?)
ALARM! (what?)
HALT! (what?)
That’s SCRAMWAVE.
(Big KK Vacay!)

[Post-Chorus Hook]
ONE DAY UP!
NEXT DAY DOWN!
SAME OLD LINE
SAME OLD SOUND!

[Verse 3]
They need “outsider” voices to sell the shine-line
Hobby-hero optics, “look how it’s fine”
But the plant isn’t a brand, it’s a stress test
And it failed in front of every guest

Tour-guide talk with a hardened face
“Perfectly fine here” - said like grace
But the vacay ends when the alarms arrive
And the only thing steady is the pad outside

[Hook: Short Punch]
GREEN BOARD (clean)
RED BOARD (mean)
GREEN BOARD (clean)
RED BOARD (mean)

[Bridge]

Click click click then the channel drops
Status stays “pending,” no date on the box
No victory lap, no “back to normal”
Just another halt made informal

[Final Chorus]
RESTART! (what?)
ALARM! (what?)
HALT! (what?)
run it back

RESTART! (what?)
ALARM! (what?)
HALT! (what?)
You don’t get to bluff physics.

[Outro]
Big KK Vacay… (yeah)
Big KK Vacay… (what)
Start it up - shut it down.
Start it up - shut it down.
