lyrics

When the Japs signed the surrender
And they called off the Marines,
The Supreme Allied Commander
Flushed it down a latrine.

And the shoreline burned for miles
From the sudden doppler shift,
And the Navy lost the files
In the continental drift.

Tell us what you know,
Sally Harmony,
And the truth will be your best defense.
You don't need to fear the world,
Though it's cruel and cold,
It never really did make any sense.

Here comes the sergeant with the message.
"Did the Russians test that bomb?"
"No, they said it was a safety drill.
Another false alarm."

"There is no question they are savages,
But at least they're well rehearsed
For our mutually assured
Everlasting peace on earth."

I'm living in a missile silo.
Keeping secrets makes me bored.
My political asylum
Has become a mental ward.

So won't you fire up the satellites
For the tribal power grind,
For the rocket swinging contest
And the freedom of mankind.
