It's Christmas at ground zero
There's music in the
air
The sleigh bells are ringing and the carolers are
singing
While the air raid sirens blare

It's Christmas at ground zero
The button has been
pressed
The radio just let us know
That this is not a
test

Everywhere the atom bombs are dropping
It's the end of all humanity
No more time for
last-minute shopping
It's time to face your final
destiny

It's Christmas at ground zero
There's panic in the crowd
We can dodge debris while
we trim the tree
Underneath the mushroom cloud

You might hear some reindeer on your rooftop
Or Jack
Frost on your windowsill
But if someone's climbing
down your chimney
You better load your gun and shoot to
kill

It's Christmas at ground zero
And if
the radiation level's okay
I'll go out with you
and see all the new
Mutations on New Year's Day

It's Christmas at ground zero
Just seconds
left to go
I'll duck and cover with my Yuletide
lover
Underneath the mistletoe

It's
Christmas at ground zero
Now the missiles are on their
way
What a crazy fluke, we're gonna get nuked
On
this jolly holiday
