Canzone contro la bomba atomica scritta assieme a Denise Kerr.
The birds they are a-singing, the sun's up in the sky.
We don't want no fusion bomb to blow us all to - halleluiah!
We don't want our bodies scattered all around,
We'd rather go on living with both feet on the ground.
(Chorus): Brother, won't you join in the line?
Brother, won't you join in the line?
If you want to keep on breathing, join us m the line.
Come and save the world, man, you're only just in time.
They say they've got a clean bomb, where the fall-out doesn't fall,
But to me the best bomb is the bomb that isn't there at all!
You ask for decent houses and they give you bombs instead,
A six-foot hole to house you in and a medal when you're dead.
The Government is working. toiling night and day -
Planning your destruction in a scientific way:
They ask for you to trust them and let them have their head,
You'll find you have no problems, but you'll also find you're dead.
We don't want no fusion bomb to blow us all to - halleluiah!
We don't want our bodies scattered all around,
We'd rather go on living with both feet on the ground.
(Chorus): Brother, won't you join in the line?
Brother, won't you join in the line?
If you want to keep on breathing, join us m the line.
Come and save the world, man, you're only just in time.
They say they've got a clean bomb, where the fall-out doesn't fall,
But to me the best bomb is the bomb that isn't there at all!
You ask for decent houses and they give you bombs instead,
A six-foot hole to house you in and a medal when you're dead.
The Government is working. toiling night and day -
Planning your destruction in a scientific way:
They ask for you to trust them and let them have their head,
You'll find you have no problems, but you'll also find you're dead.
