Hear the original demo of this very sad song.
lyrics
Tune into my radio, shut up and try to listen
Weatherman comes and sings his song and the anchor speaks his vision
He said some looney with a gun just killed a million children
And the cops won't try to stop him 'cause he'll just kill more civilians
Look outside my window sill and see the world I'm missing
See the shelters catch aflame and see the fire glisten
See the buildings burn from the safety of my kitchen
And see nuclear glow in the trees and in the bushes
Hey, hey when the bombs fall we won't be here at all
Hey, hey when the bombs fall we won't be here at all
And it doesn't cross the parent's minds what they'll get their kids for Christmas
And the kids don't care 'bout colleges 'cause they don't know what they're missing
Hey, hey when the bombs fall we won't be here at all
Hey, hey when the bombs fall we won't be here at all
Who ever thought the president would stand up and try to leave us
And the manics up on the moon see the asteroids from Venus
See the soldiers march in line like little tiny pictures
See all their tanks and guns as the air raid moves into the fixtures
And the president won't fail us now as he leaves to see the country
And the aliens who shut us down are the ones who can't be sitting
Try to turn my TV on but the power's gone and missing
The internet has been shut down to stop all the button pushing
And I try to find the girl I love just to say I never loved her
And as sure as I have let her down I am sure she'll find another
Hey, hey when the bombs fall we won't be here at all
Hey, hey when the bombs fall we won't be here at all
And it doesn't cross the parent's minds what they'll get their kids for Christmas
And the kids don't care 'bout colleges 'cause they don't know what they're missing
Hey, hey when the bombs fall we won't be here at all
Hey, hey when the bombs fall we won't be here at all
Who ever thought the president would stand up and try to leave us
And the manics up on the moon see the asteroids from Venus
Hey, hey when the bombs fall we won't be here at all
Hey, hey when the bombs fall we won't be here at all
And it doesn't cross the parent's minds what they'll get their kids for Christmas
And the kids don't care 'bout colleges 'cause they don't know what they're missing
Hey, hey when the bombs fall we won't be here at all
Hey, hey when the bombs fall we won't be here at all
Who ever thought the president would stand up and try to leave us
And the manics up on the moon see the asteroids from Venus
