Ground Zero Brooklyn
Home watching Star Trek
everything's o.k.
little do I know
Soviet missiles are on the way
the bastards set loose
the wardogs Tyr & Loki
weatherman's predicting rain
but fire it'll be
Minutemen launching, Air-sirens haunting
Warheads detonating, Cremating
I'm living at - Ground Zero
I'm dying at
I'm burning at
I'm frying at
From my bed I hear the sirens
screaming of foreboding
populous escaping highways overloading
bridge is down tunnel's flooded
only got six minutes
head between my legs I kiss my balls goodbye
they're finished
MX's blasting, Skyscrapers crashing
Fallout liberated, We're wasted
Jesus I beg of thee
don't take my life
return me to the womb
from which I was torn
birth is a sin
and the punishment is death
I wish you had left me unborn
I shit my pants as I wait for the reaper
lie in fetal position
tears stream down my cheeks
as I call out for my mother
and say an act of contrition
we'll fight this war with germs & atoms
destroy our only home
our mutated descendants battle the next
with sticks & stones
Are we not savages
innately destined to maim & kill?
blame it on the environment
heredity or evolution we're still responsible
our intelligence may progress
at geometric rates
yet socially we remain belligerent neonates
