World War 3
Hiroshima was just a flake
Who doesn't like yellowcake?
Hiroshima was just a fluke
Who's afraid of a few nukes?
Hiroshima was costly as can be
Who's betting on world war free?
The case for war was weak
Our insanity was epic
The case for war was lame
A thousand bright suns came
I saw mushrooms bloom
I watched them grow
More than you will ever know
I saw cities of doom
I saw burning skies
I heard babies cry
In a flash our creature was born
In the Pantheon of Gods we belong
