Hiroshima, Nagasaki |

Alamogordo, Bikini |

I'm gonna preach you all a sermon about Old Man Atom, that's me |
| [00:21.959] |
I don't mean the Adam in the Bible datum |
| [00:24.078] |
I don't mean the Adam that mother Eve mated |
| [00:26.608] |
I mean the thing that science liberated |
| [00:29.867] |
The thing that Einstein says he's scared of |
| [00:33.111] |
And when Einstein's scared, brother you'd better be scared |
| [00:37.601] |
If you're scared of the atom here's what you gotta do |
| [00:39.994] |
You gotta gather all the people in the world with you |
| [00:42.498] |
'Cause if you don't get together and do it |
| [00:45.398] |
Well, first thing you know I'm gonna blow this world plum to |
| [00:48.928] |
Hiroshima, Nagasaki |
| [00:53.414] |
Alamogordo, Bikini |
| [00:58.209] |
Now, life used to be such a simple joy |
| [01:00.802] |
My cyclotron was just a super toy |
| [01:02.927] |
And folks got born, they'd work and marry |
| [01:05.377] |
And "atom" was a word in the dictionary |
| [01:07.759] |
And then it happened |
| [01:10.168] |
The science boys from every clime |
| [01:12.606] |
They all pitched in with overtime |
| [01:15.189] |
And before they knew it, the thing was done |
| [01:17.004] |
And they'd hitched up the power of the goldurn Sun |
| [01:20.314] |
And put a harness on ol' Sol |
| [01:23.022] |
Splittin' atoms while the diplomats were splittin' hairs |
| [01:27.345] |
Hiroshima, Nagasaki |
| [01:31.795] |
Alamogordo, Bikini |
| [01:36.764] |
But the atom's here in spite of hysteria |
| [01:39.172] |
It flourishes in Utah as well as Siberia |
| [01:41.816] |
And whether you're a black, white, red, or brown |
| [01:43.995] |
The question is this when you boil it down |
| [01:47.493] |
To be or not to be, that's the question |
| [01:51.909] |
The answer to it all ain't military datum |
| [01:54.760] |
Like who gets there firstest with the mostest atoms |
| [01:57.393] |
No, the people of the world must decide their fate |
| [02:00.179] |
They gotta get together or disintegrate |
| [02:04.061] |
I hold this truth to be self-evident |
| [02:06.604] |
That all men may be cremated equal |
| [02:09.790] |
Hiroshima, Nagasaki |
| [02:14.397] |
Alamogordo, Bikini |
| [02:18.851] |
Yes, it's up to the people 'cause atoms don't care |
| [02:21.833] |
You can't fence me in, I'm just like air |
| [02:24.372] |
I don't give a hoot about any politics |
| [02:26.934] |
Or who got what into whichever fix |
| [02:29.736] |
All I wanna do is sit around and have my nucleus bombarded by neutrons |
| [02:35.846] |
Now, the moral is this, just as plain as day |
| [02:38.351] |
That Old Man Atom is here to stay |
| [02:41.003] |
I'm gonna stick around, and that's for true |
| [02:43.957] |
But ah, my dearly beloved, are you? |
| [02:48.046] |
So listen, folks, here is my thesis |
| [02:51.408] |
Peace in the world, or the world in pieces |
| [02:55.273] |
Hiroshima, Nagasaki |
| [02:59.708] |
Alamogordo, Bikini |
