well, country's in the red
soon we'll be dead
no life, not even a flower
cause atomic power

scares the shit out of you
there's nothing you can do
undecided men
bout a war you can't win
hey, who would want to win the damn thing anyway, right boys?!

children turn green
the flowers die
all the people are gone except i
the atom bombs have exploded near
where was i if i wasn't here?
atomic was one way out
nuclear was the final bout
atomic war can destroy our race
leave the earth in all but waste

but, where was i

when the trouble started?
where was i when the two sides parted?
where was i if i wasn't here?
cause the atom bombs have exploded near
but nothing's happened to me so...
