Like moths to a flame

Is man never gonna change

Time's seen untold aggression

And infliction of pain

If that's the only thing that's stopping war



Then thank God for the bomb

Thank God for the bomb

Thank God for the bomb

Thank God for the bomb



Nuke ya nuke ya



War is just another game

Tailor made for the insane

But make a threat of their annihilation

And nobody wants to play

If that's the only thing that keeps the peace



Then thank God for the bomb

Thank God for the bomb

Thank God for the bomb

Thank God for the bomb



Nuke ya nuke ya



Today was tomorrow yesterday

It's funny how the time can slip away

The face of the doomsday clock

Has launched a thousand wars

As we near the final hour

Time is the only foe we have



When war is obsolete

I'll thank God for the war's defeat

But any talk about hell freezing over

Is all said with tongue in cheek

Until the day the drums beat no more



I'll thank god for the bomb

Thank God for the bomb

Thank God for the bomb

Thank God for the bomb



Nuke ya nuke ya
