It was early one morning
when all the good work was done
It was early one morning
when all the good work was done
And that big bird was loaded,
with that awful atomic bomb ..
Wrote my baby,
I was behind the risin' sun
Wrote my baby,
I was behind the risin' sun
I told her, don't be uneasy
Because I'm behind the atomic bomb
Nation after nation,
was near and far away
Nation after nation,
was near and far away
Well, they soon got the news
And there where they would stay
Over in East Japan,
you know, they let down and cried
Over in East Japan,
you know, they let down and cried
And poor Tojo,
had to find a place to hide ..
when all the good work was done
It was early one morning
when all the good work was done
And that big bird was loaded,
with that awful atomic bomb ..
Wrote my baby,
I was behind the risin' sun
Wrote my baby,
I was behind the risin' sun
I told her, don't be uneasy
Because I'm behind the atomic bomb
Nation after nation,
was near and far away
Nation after nation,
was near and far away
Well, they soon got the news
And there where they would stay
Over in East Japan,
you know, they let down and cried
Over in East Japan,
you know, they let down and cried
And poor Tojo,
had to find a place to hide ..

.. and suddenly the cold war (never ended) turns into a hot one and with it the nightmare of "The Bomb" returns .. Let's start all over again ..
