Finger of Fate
Finger of fate
The biggest fireworks display
The wold has ever seen
Rockets all exploding
The loudest there had been
Flashes in the moonlight
Brighter than the sun
Someone pressed the button
My god what have we done?
Fiery clouds are airborne
Ash as thick as snow
Acid rain is falling
Killing all that grow
The mushroom clouds are climbing
Such a frightful sight
Someone pressed the button
And brought eternal night?
A mist of poisonous gasses
Hang heavy over land
And where the trees were growing
Now just desert sand
The darkness shoots out lightning
The thunder lingers long
Someone pressed the button
Now everything has gone!
