Lyrics

Lest we forget scorched earth policies
Of megaton and hydrogen
And taut muscle of an armory that flexes
To show the world we mean business!
It's all smiles and handshakes
But who moves to disarm
Radium, uranium -
One more isotope to add the collection
That's gonna eat us even more
When there's ashes to remind us
The age of outrage
Has been reasoned into submission
And cries for peace
Are no longer in fashion
I wonder if we'll see the point
Through cataracted eyes
Or draw breath from irradiated lungs
And sigh as we exit times seven
