Ladies and Gentlemen

Boys and girls

Step right up to see the show

We have cocaine

Morphine and all kinds of drugs

Alcohol

Arsenic and all kinds of fun

There are bombers and killers and clowns on the floor

So run for your lives

What are you waiting for?

We have racism

Sexism and oh how goodie

We even have a faith war between religion

so lay it all on the floor

Once it's over

When civilizations are dead and gone

The one left standing will be the wise old owl sitting in the tree

He was listening

Watching and trying to warn

Of the terrors coming with the nuclear war

But no one listened

No one care

And now those children are left in dispare
