{Chorus}
5
All clear wail the sirens
6
Sunshine on the waste-land
7
Old man sitting in the white sand
8
Think we're in for a big surprise,
9
right between the ey..es
10
Seemed a good idea
11
to drop a bomb on the waste-land, yeah
12
Only one man could be seen,
13
and he was old and so serene
14
Captain sat in his deck chair,
15
and the red light flashed "beware"
16
Pilot felt quite big-time
17
as the bomb sailed through the air
18
Well, they danced and sang
19
when the bang went bang
20
When the lights popped out
21
and the smoke began to clear,
22
it was positively queer!
23
{chorus}
24
"Die" said the General,
25
"cobblers" said the man
26
So the Pentagon sent a cable,
27
and the Queen a telegram
28
A-bombs, H-bombs, even very small ones
29
ripped apart that sand
30
'Til the stench was just revolting!,
31
and the sky a green-ish tan
32
But the soldier said "Sir,
33
there's a crack in the world"
34
And the figures went "squash",
35
and the bits flew far and wide
36
How the universe sighed!
37
{chorus}
38
{chorus}
39
When the smoke had blown away,
40
there was nothing left to view
41
Except a man, dear Lord!, he look like you
42
Floating high,
43
up in the sky........y
