Christmas At Ground Zero lyrics

It's Christmas at Ground Zero.

There's music in the air.

The sleigh bells are ringing

and the carolers are singing

while the air raid sirens blare.

It's Christmas at Ground Zero.

The button has been pressed.

The radio just let us know

that this is not a test

Everywhere the atom bombs are dropping.

It's the end of all humanity.

No more time for last minute shopping.

It's time to face your final destiny.

It's Christmas at Ground Zero.

There's panic in the crowd.

We can dodge debris while we trim the tree

underneath a mushroom cloud.

[Ronald Reagan speaking:]

Well, the big day is only a few hours away now.

I'm sure you're all looking forward to it as much as we are.

You might hear some reindeer on your rooftop

or Jack Frost on your windowsill,

but if someone's climbing down your chimney,

you better load your gun and shoot to kill.

Oh, it's Christmas at Ground Zero

and if the radiation level's okay,

I'll go out with you and see the all the new

mutations on New Year's Day.

It's Christmas at Ground Zero:

Just seconds left to go.

I'll duck and cover with my yuletide lover

underneath the mistletoe.

It's Christmas at Ground Zero.

Now the missiles are on their way.

What a crazy fluke,

we're gonna get nuked

on this jolly holiday.

What a crazy fluke,

we're gonna get nuked

on this jolly holiday.
