HEADIN’ TO ARMAGEDDON

HEADIN’ TO ARMAGEDDON
(To: 99 Bottles of Beer, more or less)

We’re headin’ to Armageddon
The Pentagon is thrilled–
They’ve got a lot of great ideas
For brand new nukes to build.
They’ve named a slew of countries
They’d like to smash to bits
They’ve got Iran right in their sights
There’s gonna be a blitz!
Chorus
We’re headin’ to Armageddon
With all our might and main;
The earth is gonna go up in smoke
And never come back again.

We’re headin’ to Armageddon
And Cheney thinks it’s right
‘Cause Democrats will be in hell
and he’ll wearing white.
With angel wings and cowboy boots
White linen pants with creases,
He’ll strut and brag in front of God,
“See what I did for Jesus!”
Chorus

Nukes are proliferating
Since nations all agree
The USA is a bigger threat than AIDS or LSD.
Now someone’s bound to set one off
By accident or aim
And no one will be left around
to punish or to blame.
Chorus

Now, If we don’t want Armageddon,
With all our might and main
We must cry out and march and shout and make our feelings plain–
For life on earth is precious
And children are so dear
We need a planet free from nukes
We must no longer fear
That we are headin’ to Armageddon
with all our might and main
The earth must not go up in smoke
And never come back again!
