When the bomb drops it'll be a bank holiday
Everybody happy in their tents and caravans
Everybody happy in their ignorance and apathy
No-one realises 'til their television breaks down
The voices of the people are going unhear
But they got nothing to say cos they're deaf and dumb
Too concerned with money, luxury, adultery
Complacency and politics and apathy will never mix
When the bomb drops there'll be a four-minute warning
Three minutes of anarchy and one of blind futility
No-one left alive and no chances to survive
You've heard it all before - but I'm telling you once more
To forget is to forgive but there's nothing to forget
I ain't forgotten how to live and it hasn't happened yet
They'll drop the bomb for something to do, can't remember what it's for
But I ain't forgot Hiroshima - I ain't forgot the war
Does it really have to append like it did before?
Does it really have to append like it did before?
Does it really have to append like it did before?
