Come all you stars falling out of the sky
Come all you angels forgetting to fly
Come all who feel we're not on our own
All UFOs come on your way home
Alone, that's no way to be carrying on
Come on, we're betting on a future that's long
Gone, in look of a song
You just have to be right one more time then you're wrong
Atomic City (Atomic)
Oh, oh
Atomic City (Atomic)
Oh, oh
I'm free
Where you are is where I'll be
I'm free
So unexpectedly
Come all who serve above and below
Come all believers and all who don't know
Come quick, come soon, comme ci, comme ça
Then you dive into your eyes and blah blah blah
Guitars, she pulls the strings et cetera
Sinatra swings, a choir sings
Love is God and God is love
And if your dreams don't scare you, they're not big enough
Atomic City (Atomic)
Oh, oh
Atomic City
Atomic Sun for everyone
For everyone
Roll the dice
That's roulette
The beat has not stopped
Speeding yet
I'm free
Where you are is where I'll be
I'm free
So unexpectedly
I'm free
I see what's in front of me
And your freedom is contagious
What you've got I wanna be
I'm free
It took me my whole life
I got the keys to the cages
I'm ready for bright lights
I'm free
I came here for the fight
I'm front row in Las Vegas
And there's a big one on tonight

"Atomic City" is a song by Irish rock band U2, released as a single on 29 September 2023 through Island Records. It was produced by Jacknife Lee and Steve Lillywhite, and was recorded at Sound City Studios. The song was written as a promotional tie-in to the band's U2:UV Achtung Baby Live concert residency at Sphere in the Las Vegas Valley, and it was released the same day the residency began.
The band described the track as a musical homage to artists such as Blondie, Giorgio Moroder, and the Clash as well as post-punk music of the 1970s; co-writing credits for "Atomic City" were given to Debbie Harry and Moroder due to its chorus sharing similarities with Blondie's "Call Me".
Lyrically, the song makes references to Las Vegas, with the title taken from the city's nickname from the 1950s when it was a destination for nuclear tourism. It was U2's first new song since "Your Song Saved My Life" from the soundtrack of the animated musical Sing 2 in 2021.
Despite being absent from the residency in order to recuperate from surgery, drummer Larry Mullen Jr. performed on the track and was filmed for its music video, which was shot in Las Vegas and directed by Ben Kutchins. It was nominated for the 2024 MTV Video Music Award for Best Rock Video.
