The sun is burning in the sky
|
Strands of clouds go slowly drifting by
|
In the park the lazy breeze
|
Are joining in the flowers, among the trees
|
And the sun burns in the sky
|
|
Now the sun is in the West
|
Little kids go home to take their rest
|
And the couples in the park
|
Are holdin' hands and waitin' for the dark
|
And the sun is in the West
|
|
Now the sun is sinking low
|
Children playin' know it's time to go
|
High above a spot appears
|
A little blossom blooms and then draws near
|
And the sun is sinking low
|
|
Now the sun has come to Earth
|
Shrouded in a mushroom cloud of death
|
Death comes in a blinding flash
|
Of hellish heat and leaves a smear of ash
|
And the sun has come to Earth
|
|
Now the sun has disappeared
|
All is darkness, anger, pain and fear
|
Twisted, sightless wrecks of men
|
Go groping on their knees and cry in pain
|
And the sun has disappeared
|
|
