30000 Megatons - Pond

There’s thirty-thousand megatons pointed at her

And him and you and me and everyone we serve

I look out at the mirror, look out at the world

Thirty-thousand megatons is just what we deserve

And I don’t get out of bed no more

Beasts learned to talk a bit just to survive

But we’re not even beasts, it’s a wonder we’re alive

We’re baser than the base, deaf and dumb and blind

I’ll not stand for Maybelline,

or Kyle or Jackie O

Or my sunburnt country burning people I don’t know

I’ll not stand alone, or sing in one tune

To see a Virgin air hostess serve Bolly on the moon

And if I was the man on the Moon, I wouldn’t let us near

I’d stand on a crater with my shotgun to the sky

And leave us to our mines

and our Tinder 'til we die

And the Earth will sigh, and the Moon will wipe its brow

We need thirty-thousand megatons

Push the button now

We need thirsty-thousand megatons

Push the button now

Out on the street, it’s only vitamins and hate

We’ll soon be out of Xanax

and then it’ll be too late

We need thirty-thousand megatons, why wait?

Why wait?

We need thirty-thousand megatons

Push the button now

We need thirty-thousand megatons

Push the button now
