Bombers

All clear wail the sirens
Sunshine on the waste land
Old man sitting in the white sand
Think we're in for a big surprise
Right between the eyesSeemed a good idea
To drop a bomb on the waste land, yeah
Only one man could be seen
And he was old and so sereneCaptain sat in his deck chair
And the red light flashed "Beware"
Pilot felt quite big time
As the bomb sailed through the airWell, they danced and sang
When the bang went bang
When the lights popped out
And the smoke began to clear
It was positively queerAll clear wail the sirens
Sunshine on the waste land
Old man sitting in the white sand
Think we're in for a big surprise
Right between the eyes"Die", said the general
"Cobblers", said the man
So the Pentagon sent a cable
And the Queen a telegramA bombs, H bombs, even very small ones
Ripped apart that sand
'Til the stench was just revolting
And the sky a greenish tanBut the soldier said "Sir
There's a crack in the world"
And the figures went "Squash"
And the bits flew far and wide
How the universe sighedAll clear wail the sirens
Sunshine on the waste land
Old man sitting in the white sand
Think we're in for a big surprise
Right between the eyesAll clear wail the sirens
Sunshine on the waste land
Old man sitting in the white sand
Think we're in for a big surprise
Right between our eyesWhen the smoke had blown away
There was nothing left in view
Except a man, dear Lord, who looks like You
Floating high, up in the sky
